    Can these be used for the cleaning of Bullets too?

    People have used their tumblers to clean live ammo, so cleaning bullets would work.

    These are Jacketed, will this damage the Bonding?

    The tumblers just vibrate, so it shouldn't damage the bullets. As I said people put live rounds into their tumblers and it doesn't discharge the primers.

    Are the bullets tarnished or why do you need to tumble the bullets?

    I never had to tumble my bullets, but I don't feel that there is an issue with tumbling bullets. Just get add some polishing solvents to your media and it should look good as new.

    A lot of shooters who use moly use steel shot in vibratory tumblers to put the moly coating on their bullets, no problems. (You must be very careful with moly, it makes a terrible mess if you get sloppy with it).
