Alright, I ordered the end mills. What speed should I run them at when they arrive?

This is a follow up thread to my earlier thread about drilling detents. With the help from the guys in that thread I have found my press and some carbide end mills. The press is a dremel 4000 mounted in the dremel press. Now, how fast or slow should I run the end mills? I would think it would be higher on the speed spectrum. BTW, I am planning to use water as my coolant during milling.

Thanks in advance!
 
If your drilling a detent in a hardened liner don't run it fast. Slow is the key for sst, sorry I can't give you a rpm range.
