I have some Accubonds that were pulled to change the load and have tarnished a little while waiting to be loaded gain. I thought of tumbling them. Will this cause any damage to the tip though? Also, is it ok to soak them in a cleaner, such as you would for brass? Would any water leak into the tip area or is this pretty well sealed? They probably would only need five minutes or so in the solution to brighten them up, so they wouldn't soak long. lol Does anyone have any experience tumbling or using soaking solutions on tipped bullets specifically, as I don't want to damage the tips if at all possible.

I’d bet they’re tumbled at the factory before they’re packaged. I can’t see any reason it would hurt them.
