[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 228514, member: 5418"] I also agree that the lacquer is a better way to go. Here's a link to what i posted on this a while ago - my "Chalkryon" experience: [url]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f28/tempilsticks-annealing-32472/[/url] Further on I post on how I managed to make it work and also the advice of Tempil in response to my query as to how to use the "crayons". I didn't think to shave a little off and put it inside the neck; neat idea. I undestand that the 650° F is to measure on the shoulder though and not the neck which should be around 730° or something (just from my research on this and no speciual personal knowledge). I found that it took a lot longer than 5secs with a propane/butane camping stove cartridge driven plumbing torch (that's a mouthfull). Not ideal as it makes the rest of the case pretty warm. What torches are you guys using? WL [/QUOTE]
