Go here for your corn cob and other media: www.grainger.com/ Type "corn cob" in the search pane on their main page.

For a little more aggressive media, walnut works very well.

Good call J.Papineau, I used this stuff as well.

It works well and does not get stuck in the primer pocket or flash holes.

Dumb question here, but some of that stuff is blast media. Isn't it too small for vibrators or are you guys blasting each and every case? ++)

Is this stuff dusty(ier) that regular cob?

I use it in a lyman tumbler without any issues. I put NuFinish and dryers sheets in the tumbler to help with the dust.
