Is it made to be filled with steel shots or just rocks?

I use corn cob media for tumbling brass. Mine would run for maybe 10 minutes and then overheat. After half a dozen tries it froze up completely. I only loaded it to about half of what they say it can do. Maybe you'll have better luck.

It is usually filled with walnut or corn cob media to clean brass. There are other media choices out there but those are the most common, cost effective and do not harm the brass.

Its used to tumble brass casings and nuts and bolts. U fill it with corn cob or ground walnut shell media.

Yes, there is definitely some steel in the mechanism. Be aware that if you really like something like this, buy several. They don't last long.

The ones that it comes with are plastic... but it can shoot the metal bbs if they are the correct size.

I'm not the manufacture or the seller, and I personally haven't dropped a steel ball on it to see, but as far as I can see it would survive a hit like that. Hope this helps

Hi Greg, I used plastic pellets which get transformed into milk bottles and such. I swept them up from a cargo trailer at work. Don't know where you could find them though. Sand or lead shot both work great yet are a bit heavy to tote to the range with everything else. My brother uses his stuffed with newspaper but I feel their too lite. Hope this helps.

I don't really know. I would guess probably not steel, probably a cheaper metal, but they are sufficiently strong. The spike is not the part that will break first. The plastic top that spins will break if you hit it though. They do put out a nice misty water pattern though, which is what I like about them.

That is a good question. I believe it's steel. Either way, it is INCREDIBLY well-built. I had low expectations given the inexpensive price, but this thing is bomb proof.

It is aluminum or possibly some other lightweight steel. It's not very heavy.

it is made out of very heavy steel. It is well worth the money as it does a fantastic job. We use it to crack hickory nuts and it even does the hard shell ones.Even though it is made "heavy" it is very easy to use and cracks the hard shells with little exertion.

Steel. It's perfect for regular AV and pro gear. Warning: It is NOT intended for computers - the 22" depth is too little for many rack mounted servers.

I am not sure as I gave it as a gift and didn't notice what type of balls were used. Hardware stores would have them if they are small steel balls.

This is steel. Quite heavy actually. I have used this extensively and highly recommend it. It rolls easily.

Metal. I like it a lot. When the flash rides on top, you can shoot a horizontal or vertical picture and they come out great.

It is rifled steel. It is a good barrel. Make sure to tighten barrel if loose.
