anneal

  1. Note to self.

    Usually I like to learn by reading, asking questions, etc. Yesterday I taught myself a lesson in annealing, the hard way. Only anneal perfectly clean brass! I thought the brass was pretty clean but it seems maybe not so much. If the brass has any lube left, it migrates to the mid-line of the...
  2. Annealing color change

    I bought an Annealeez machine and am very happy with it. Easy to setup and a huge time saver. I annealed about 1400 rounds Rem 204 Ruger and 450 rounds Rem 20 Vartarg. I setup the machine to just turn the 750 deg F tempilaq clear (inside the neck). With no changes to time or flame, I noticed...

  6. Lapua does not recommend re-annealing?

    Hey all, Was in Lapua’s website and for the 6.5 brass, they say they do not recommended Re-annealing their off the shelf factory annealed brass. Is their a reason for this? I know most on here anneal every time If I’m not wrong. So why does lapua say this and are they correct?
  7. When to anneal cases?

    How does one establish that it is time to anneal your cases? What do you look for? What are the the tell tail signs? JPM
  8. Annealing machine prototype 2

    I've been kicking around an idea for making a very simple annealing machine. I thought it should be very possible to only use one motor for all actions - loading a case, spinning in front of a flame and ejecting it after a set time. I did a couple of 2d MDF mockups, then built this thing...
