Grampus from United States, UT Public Profile

Prior to purchasing this separator, I would hand-separate the casings from the solid media one at a time. Talk about mind-numbing. I decided to purchase the Frankford media separator and give it a try. I can now separate all of the solid media away from the brass, (including the interior of the casings) in less than 1 minute on an average load of 300 casings. I was actually surprised at how well it worked. I tried it for separating the brass after using a wet tumbling cleaning method and was equally pleased.
The round casing sieve is pretty rugged, but the case top and bottom are thinner than I expected. I do like the screen in the lid which helps drain water away when using the wet media method.
After 2 months of use, the unit is holding up well, so I have concluded it is a good deal for the price. I would recommend it.

If you work with Lake City or other military brass, you need to swage the primer pockets. If you process lots of brass, then I would recommend this swage tool. It takes a bit of trial and error to get the swage tool properly set, but once you get it set up, it's golden. Look on youtube to see how to attach a tube to the exit die. This setup is so fast that you need to tube to handle the swaged cases exiting the press. Processes a case about every two seconds.
