[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 406839, member: 1521"] This is true, and as pointed out in the article, we do not ever desire to 'anneal', but to attain "something suitable for case necks". And my assertion all along is that we should not ANNEAL, but STRESS RELIEVE our cases. Also, much in this article can be taken as experienced use with torches. It is conceded that there is ZERO lead dipping experience or testing done here. I assure you, it takes little time to bring brass in contact(inside & out) with lead, to it's temperature. And given that this temp is lower than a typical flamepoint, sufficient timing is easily achieved with less risk(and profit forfeited). And lastly, the 15min at 662deg appears stated without basis. Perhaps this was worked out using torches.. Same with +750 for a few seconds.. Our discussion here is leading to that needed with lead dipping. [/QUOTE]
