[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 793948, member: 39764"] You need to be very careful when annealing bottle necks. I know there is a pile of video's about annealing necks with everything fron a cordless drill and a socket and a pan of water to putting them in a pan of water and heating the necks and knocking them over. I have no faith in any of the homebrew methods for couple reasons. One, it takes an exact amount of heating time for consistency and the heat can't exceed (I believe 850 degrees) or the cartridge is junk. You need a temperature sensing paint, a device to sequence the case in the flame and a method of transport that rotates the case as it heats..... I suggest you make your next purchase a Bench Source annealer. I have one on Jeff's recommendation and I anneal everything from 338's to straight wall 45LCS. Not cheap (about 500 bucks) but better than destroying a rifle or getting hurt. Graf's sells them. Bench Source has a website too. [/QUOTE]
