I'm thinking the only thing dirty that you cannot get to is the primer area. Tumble the cases with the spent primer intact, then start the process? I think Gatorade checks and cleans each of his primer pockets. Perfect time to check for small primer pockets in 45. But I have a question... I believe you load primarily 45 acp. What happens when a small primer case slips through? Does it jam up the machine? just crushes the new primer? spills powder? Nothing? Serious question because I just don't know.
