Eventually everyone who reloads experiences 'nesting' brass due to tumbling dissimilar sized brass - usually just once however!

Only once for me. 45 Colt and 357 it was, along with those thousands of stainless steel tumbling pins. It was an interesting afternoon "un-nesting" that mess!

I remember thinking, "Hey, I'll just combine these two small batches and save myself some time!"

Brilliant!

Learned it the hard way too. :lol:
Now there are very few times when there's more than one caliber of brass in the tumbler.
