This may sound like a silly question, but for the beginner reloader would it be better to learn using the cheaper tumblers and media before upgrading to the stainless steel. If I am just plinking, would this be better. Is the stainless steel really just for more precision shooting?
I doubt you will ever see any improvement performance-wise in pistol ammo with stainless over conventional. If you want *pretty* brass, go for it. If you want functional, a vibratory tumbler and corn or walnut will serve you just fine.
