I just received a Hornady Magnum cleaner as a gift for Christmas. Cleaned a bunch of pre-tumbled and deprimed brass with it. Did a great job of cleaning out the primer pockets and the inside of the brass. The brass still retained it's shine from the tumbler. Think I'm still going to tumble, deprime, and then use the sonic cleaner. It only takes 25 minutes in the cleaner to do its job but then you have to lay everything out to dry. It's pretty noisy, first time I turned it on it scared the crap out of me. I shut it off real fast kind of sounds like sparks were flying out of the tank.

Been a while since the original post, and I appreciate all the answers, even the ones that had nothing but content.

I've decided to stick with my tumbler because it works fine, does a few hundred 45 brass at a time, and is pretty cheap.

The fancy stuff just has more to break, and I can't see that it makes me more efficient or the brass more clean.
