[QUOTE="straightshooter, post: 466024, member: 9775"] Let me describe my annealing a little better. What I do is put the brass in a deep socket that comes just below the shoulder. The brass is spun at pretty high speed to try and get an even heat. I learned this technique from the internet. On the net this person was annealing in a dimly lit room, and he heated the brass just before it (for lack of a better word) flamed. The first time I annealed my own brass I did it in the dark, and found that it took 5-6 seconds to get to that point with my torch. From that point on I just timed each piece with the lights on, and been doing this ever since. I really don't know how hot this brass is getting. [/QUOTE]
