annealing machines ?

I believe all these machines anneal brass well, the Giraud is very convenient.

I imagine you could put a case feeder on the other machines like the Dillon presses. I like not having to individually load and wait.

The most economical, bernzomatic torch, scocket and extension to hold case, drill to spin the holder and dim your lights.

IMO, best machine is Benchsource. Its extremely simple, compact, fast, easy to set up and works perfect. No cons here.

Cant beat this for value . Dewalt 18v is a dream to use annealing. Same as K&M neck turning i.e. a bit of intimacy.

Do the rotating machines with a wheel get hot? a heat sink? spin the case?fan?.my old one with a steel wheel is cool after 200 cases. and cost half of what those cost and it does a perfect job. The end product is what counts.......jim

johara1, which annealer do you have for 1/2 the price?

Dennis, It an old Ballistics edge that was replaced by the 360(i think)bur anyway, it stays as cool after i finish as when i start. The best part i got new from them on sale for 250 or less. It a very simple and does a great job. My Dasher cases had 30 + firings on them and they still look good. I did start anneal every 3 rd. time but now every time keep the seating pressure the same........jim
