[QUOTE="Loner, post: 568208, member: 24560"] Some have been annealing brass for 40 years without any special equipment. Like everything else, the equipment makes it better but I've never seen my shooting friends or myself ruin any brass. Pitch black room, when it first starts to glow it's done. And when I say a black room I mean I even put a towel across the basement door threshold. Only the light from the torch is in the room. It's certainly not hard to look at the shoulders afterwards and tell if they are even. A .002 pinch in your calipers of the neck and it should spring right back to it's size. I've never bothered quenching myself, don't see a point to it. Plenty of engineering info on the net about the times and temps that brass anneals at without trusting anything that's been convoluted by us gunners. [/QUOTE]
