[QUOTE="esshup, post: 587149, member: 11101"] Thanks guys. I don't know if they were annealed after fire forming. I didn't anneal them. I've never tumbled them either. I just sent 200 pc. of brass to Kirby to fireform them while I was waiting on him to finish my rifle. We loaded 20 rounds when I was there to test fire the rifle, and the ones that we shot didn't split. I had some of the loaded rounds left over, and the one that I shot this year split. Roughly the same ambient temps, so I'm at a loss. I will pull the primers on them and anneal them before loading. [/QUOTE]
