Abstract
A tumbler for ammunition cases is described for cleaning of the cases with a granular media inside a bowl. The bowl sits on a removable separator basin in a media sealed manner and both are removably mounted to vibrator. The bowl has an apertured-bottom through which media can be conveniently removed for separation from cases while the vibrator continues to operate. A peripherally-located funnel is provided at the bottom of the separator basin to facilitate discharge of media into a collection pan for reuse. Several embodiments are described.
