Yea, my pins came with the tumbler.
I know they do make different sizes.
Whichever size Frankford uses is what I'd recommend :)

Fro65, this might give a satisfactory explanation.

D2Cat,
Wow, I actually learned something today. Thanks.

After reading your link, I went on a quest to find some magnetic stainless.

Lo and behold, my stainless gas grill is magnetic...still not real sure how

though. Magnets attract only ferrous metals...correct?...Ferrous metals

rust...correct?...Rusty metals are not stainless...correct?

Oh well, I'm gonna quit thinking about this now and just order the stuff

Boosted4runner mentioned above.:D

Cool :) you'll love it, no doubt.
Amazon has the cheap $10 magnets that you pull a handle and it drops all the pins :)
Also, which ever size brass you put into the tumbler - try to keep it around the Frankford 30 something pound rating total. If you over-load the tumbler your brass won't be so shiny :)
I can still do 2-3 X as much in this as my Lyman Turbo-Pron and 5X my ultrasonic.
PS - if you need to reload the cases within 30/45 minutes after pulling out of the tumbler, rather than air drying you can grab a $35 Food Dehydrator from Amazon that will dry your brass quick. :)

All sort of correct but some stainless is more rustproof that other stainless.

If I got this right...

steel + chromium = magnetic stainless steel

steel + chromium + nickel = non-magnetic stainless steel.
