    I'm with Noel on this one.  After years of drying shot by all sorts
    of methods, I finally said the hell with it and left it in the
    tumbler. (okay, I put fresh burnishing soap and water in first). 
    The shot stayed un-rusted, and the tumbler was always ready for
    action. On two occasions when the shot unexplainably discolored, I
    tumbled it in  Coca Cola which had been left to stand until the fizz
    was gone. The shot came out nice and shiny ,I washed it off and left
    it once again in its soap and water solution. I've had the same
    batch of shot for fifteen years.
