Daniel, It is not that involved. After I rinse the shot that I make I have a sieve that has the correct size holes for 7 1/2. I just dump it in move it around with a gloved hand. The excess, which is usually minimal, I melt down again. The good stuff I put it in a case tumbler, add a little graphite and run the tumbler for about 10 or 15 minutes and done.
