I always tumble loaded rounds to get the case lube off. If you tumble your brass (and loaded rounds) in a capful of 50/50 NuFinish/mineral spirits it leaves them with a thin coat that prevents tarnishing. Not enough to gunk up your guns, though. Some folks use a little kerosene to get similar results.
