[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1182175, member: 4191"] Could you elaborate a bit more on [B][I](if reshaping the case)[/I][/B]? Trying to better understand your method and the rationale for it. Because I'm about to fireform 338 Lapua parent cases to 338 Lapua Improved. Since the Lapua factory has already annealed their cases prior to shipment, why would I anneal them again prior to fireforming? I'm not working these cases in any way prior to fire forming. I could see annealing again if I was working parent cases thru several case forming steps thru case reduction or expansion dies. I don't see the benefit of annealing Lapua cases prior to fireforming in an Ackley improved step, where the parent case can be chambered as is, and fireformed to the "improved" chamber dimensions. Thanks [/QUOTE]
