Hornady Lock-N-Load Sonic Cleaner

Hornady is bringing to market a new solution to case cleaning: the Sonic Cleaner.  Part of the Lock-N-Load series of reloading equipment, Hornady is claiming to bring “case cleaning to the next level.”

At about $135, the Sonic Cleaner is more expensive than a standard tumbler.  However, it is potentially superior to standard tumbling.

From Hornady:

Hornady® Manufacturing has taken cartridge case cleaning to the next level with the new Lock-N-Load^TM Sonic Cleaner.^TM A combination of intense ultrasonic cleaning action and a unique cleaning solution, One Shot® Sonic Clean^TM, provide an extremely effective and efficient method to remove carbon residue and other foreign materials from the entire case.

Unlike tumblers, this sonic cleaner quickly cleans the inside of the case as well as primer pockets. The ultrasonic action creates microjets that blast carbon buildup off cases, small gun parts and equipment.

The Lock-N-Load^TM Sonic Cleaner^TM can hold up to two hundred 223 Rem cases or one hundred 308 Win cases. No other cleaning tool on the market even comes close.
