Any tips for annealing cases?
I have done a lot of this and I firmly believe that waiting till you see a glow is way too far. I rotate the case touch it with propane flame and as soon as you see the brass change yellows it will dull out fast your done . I also let them air cool in a big metal bowl. I stand the case on a turntable of some sort and soon as I see the case take the heat I stop and knock it into the bowl. I let them cool steal wool if needed and re-polish and then form. J.Michael
