    get the extreme version of the model B tumbler (standard model works fine too if you want to save money and I'm still using it),,,,, and then do this MOD of mine = will cut your cleaning time in half when cleaning multiple types of brass at the same time OR two different batches of the same type of brass but with different fires on the two different batches (put a pc of 45acp brass in with the batch that has for example 4 fires on the brass and note that on your info card)..... best $3 MOD in my opinion for the model B tumbler AND is the only reason why I haven't moved over to the arsenal brand tumbler... i always reload in batches of 50 or 100..... no more = just in case you need to tweak things like headspace OR if you end up selling that rifle... i pull new brass OR once fired lake city brass as i need it in 50 to 100 pcs :) ............ if doing LARGE qty's or you don't care about saving time when cleaning different types of brass as mentioned above = then get the arsenal brand tumbler

    50 pcs of 308 or 6.5creed IS ~ about the same as 100pcs of 5.56 brass (in terms of weight or is close enough for the tumbler) for pure example as described in the videos below...... so for 308 or 6.5 i usually reload in increments of 50.... and for 5.56 i usually reload in increments of 100 which works great for most ammo boxes anyway :) .... also works great for pistol brass (clean 9mm and 45acp) at the same time without the need of the smaller pistol brass seating inside the larger with stuck pins

    i've used this MOD for WELL OVER 5K rounds and it's still going strong like the day I made it.. i even had true value cut the Plexiglas and I drilled the holes and filed down edges as IN THE VIDEOS..
