I've got an RCBS tumbler. Had an issue with the motor about a year or so into usage. I called them up, explained the situation and they sent me a replacement motor free of charge.

Great customer service. Go big green.

SR787 made by Smart Reloader. Ran me around $45.00. Does a great job.

My FA tumbler has been perking along for 7-8 years. At $35 (on sale at this writing) it is a bargain. If mine ever does fail I'll just hang onto the lid, toss the body and buy another.

I know... I know.... you said not over a hundred dollars.... but even a Cabela's 6 pound tumbler will go ya $69-79..... so I am going to throw this out to you anyway.

http://www.harborfreight.com/18-lb-v...ose-96923.html

I've had two of these Harbor Freight tumblers over the years. They are built like a tank, and will handle larger amounts of brass. About as close as I'm going to get to a commercial grade tumbler in this life. But it IS $164 online with no sale going on. I purchased my current one for $119 on sale, then got a 20% discount, which I used to purchase a two year extended warranty. Well worth my money. Only you can decide for yourself.

I ordered one today from Graf and Sons. Great deal with my dealer discount.

It is the same one made for Berry's Bullets and Cabela's.
