Do yourself a favor and go out to your local pet store and look for crushed walnut shells used for reptile bedding. I paid $17.99 for my first 5# of RCBS ($3.60 a pound) walnut media, but quickly learned that 10 dry pounds of “Zilla” ground English walnut shells at Pet Smart sells for $10.99 a bag ($1.10 a pound). I don’t know where the walnuts come from, but there ground, processed and packaged in the USA. The media size is a bit larger, but it works just as well and soooo much cheaper! Add a little car polish about every 3rd cycle and my brass turns out as shiny and clean as new. A used dryer sheet cut into 1” squares thrown in while tumbling absorbs the dust and keeps the media cleaner longer.
