New To Tumbling Cases

[rather be hunting]

I am looking to purchase a vibratory case tumbler. All my stuff is RCBS so I am leaning that way unless someone can advise otherwise.
Who makes the best tumbler???

I love my Lyman. It's nice and quiet and does a great job on my brass.

All of my reload equipment is RCBS as well. I have not had the opportunity to see an RCBS tumbler in operation though.

A tumbler is a tumbler. If you like RCBS, go for it.

The best? I'd say Dillon or Thumler's Ultra-vibe. Have a Lyman 3200 Autoflo now, its nice but its nowhere near as aggressive as those two. The Dillon is loud, but the Thumler's is very quiet. They've tuned that thing just right.

Had the Autoflo 2200 as well, in addition to the small Dillon. The Autoflo feature is not as fast and doesn't work nearly as well as a Dillon or RCBS separator for getting the media out of the cases.

Most generic firearm company tumblers are cheap Chinese junk. If you want to go that route, save the money and just get one form an auto supply shop. Same crap for half the price.

Dillon is the best money can buy. Get also the Dillon polish. It work. I owned a RCBS and Lyman and there is no turning back to those.

Once you try ultrasonic, you'll never go back!!

I was given (Xmas) a Dillon about ten years ago...no problems and good performance.

Dillon allthe way BABY!!!

I have a Dillon FL2000 that my brother gave me for Christmas 20 years ago and it's still running strong. I routinely run 4-500 rounds of .44 mag brass thru it at a time and often leave it running overnight...

I can't say which one is best, but I can say that my Hornady is going strong with nary a problem .

Am using an RCBS I bought 20 years ago. Used off and on depending on whether I'm into reloading or not. Works well.
