Looks like there are a lot of options in tumblers out there. So who makes the best?

Re: Tumbler
The big Dillon. Buy it once......and be done with it. Honest....I have three others. The BIG Dillon is the best. Capacity, agitation, etc....does a GOOD job.

Re: Tumbler
Thanks guys
Do I want/need a media separator too?
I don't need a ton of capacity for either. Would be nice to have a built in timer control so I could set and walk away.

Re: Tumbler
Seperator is nice, not really required. I thought I would never need a big tumbler either but after using and over stuffed little one and making a mess of a lot of brass.....the big one it is! More media, faster operation, more capacity. Only way to fly!

Re: Tumbler
Next up how big are these machines?
The Dillon 750 specs at 12" diameter and 12" tall. This is a pretty niuce size. The Dillon 2001 has no size spec on their site. Haven't looked for Lyman specs yet.

Re: Tumbler
My lyman is bigger than that. It uses somewhere over 7 pounds of corncob media or 8 to 9 pounds of walnut which I use now.
