Annealing Made Perfect Results

[Tech0214]

I just wanted to share some results from using the Annealing Made Perfect. These loads Es used to be in the 30’s and 40’s. Only thing I changed was the way I annealed.

Very Nice! You must be doing something right.

Looks good. Please tell us more about your load.

Interesting. If your Es was in the thirty’s and forty’s, you were doing something wrong in your loading process or had bad brass.

What does your target say to you? Can you post a few targets for those loads.

Nope. Same brass and components. Definitely nothing wrong with my reloading. First pic is My .260 Rem at the 2840. And the 2nd is my 300 Rum at 3080. Both are 5 shot groups.

So what temperature do you anneal at?

 

[Tech0214]

I let the Annealer tell me. No idea. That’s the fame of the Annealer Made Perfect. It has a program where it actually melts your case and analyze’s it. Then it gives you a program code that u will always use with the same brass or the same Lott number, It’s called the Aztec program. Basically lab equipment that u can have at your reloading bench.

Some of the top shooters don’t anneal at all. I doubt their Es is 30-40.

Just got my AMP Annealer a week ago, I played with it with some junk brass and so far looks like it is pretty slick. Just wish I had a little more instructions that explains things a little better for us old guys. But once I get it figured out it should be really fast, and the best part no gas and it will be something I can take to the range, when I stay for a couple days to test.

Who are these top shooters, and at what distance?

Here is another good example. I developed a load for a 300 Norma Mag using the Annealing Made Perfect.

That will get it done! Nice.

Thanks for posting your results. I use the AMP but am curious on more of the details.

Did you anneal prior to using the AMP?
If so, what method?
How many rounds fired on brass that gave you 30-40ES?
How do you clean your brass prior to reloading it?

Thanks

I won't post names but I do know many top shooters. Some never anneal, some that anneal every 3rd-4th firing and some that anneal after every firing. It needs to be part of your load development and testing.

30-40ES seems way to high and I do suspect something else to be the cause. Doubt anyone winning at a high level has ES spread anywhere close to that regardless of how they treat their brass.

Good Shooting

Yes. I used the Annealeeze. I anneal after every firing. And I wet tumble with stainless steel media.

Didn’t mean to cause some he said she said stuff over my ES. Most of my velocities ran in the 20’s. But I would always get some random velocities in the 30-40 FPS deviation. After using the AMP I’ve came to conclusion that I was Nit Annealing properly which was affecting neck tension. I’ve only been reloading for a year or so. Just thought I would share my findings. Annealing is a big part of consistency and consistency is key.

Ouch!!! Quit putting holes in me

 

[Joe Salt]

From what Tech0214 has done, he tried one thing and it worked for him and that one thing was Annealing. So that tells me he knows what he is doing.
If more people would just try one thing at a time and find results like he has, then you might be saying to yourself hey I can figure things out myself instead of asking others for there magic bullet.
And as for 1000 yard shooters unless some want to chime in most do anneal.

[Tech0214]

If I had some where to shoot 1000 yards. I would be a 1000 yard shooter that anneales. Lmao

Show a couple before pics of groupings.
