Regarding SilverFox's second step:
2- Clean primer pocket by hand with carbide bit.,Sinclair)
Is this carbide bit you speak of the same as a primer pocket uniformer?
Also, mentioned is cleaning the neck interior with a brass brush . . . is that the same as you use for cleaning your bore? I apologize for what appear to be rather simple questions. I've been using a tumbler for years now and I'm really tired of all the deficits included with tumbling,media in flash holes, dented necks, the ultra-fine dust to clean out of and off of the brass, and I still have carbon inside the dang case!). Anyway, I plan to begin annealing my brass soon and I'm wondering, also, if the 4 steps listed by SilverFox are sufficient prior to annealing or do I have to go with Ultrasonic?
SilverFox, that is an excellent article you wrote regarding long range firing under less-than-ideal weather conditions. Beautiful pictures, too.
All the best,

songdogslayer said:Thank you, SilverFox, I will try your technique. Regarding the shooting suggestion - reading flags & bench technique - I am not a competition shooter. I am, however, a long range shooter, taking prairie dogs, fox, coyote, racoon, etc, etc, at considerable range,well, considerable to this guy).
We have so dang much snow out here I've decided to purchase a couple snowmobiles for my family - can't get around on the rural roads anymore! Now I can drive my target out to 500 - 600 yards with a sled and practice,don't tell the wife).Thank you, again, for your response. I appreciate you taking the time to share your insight with me.
