[QUOTE="gohring3006, post: 1205027, member: 78762"] It's a process used after brass has become hardened from working it thru dies. The continuous stretching from firing and resizing work hardens brass. It will become inconsistent in neck tension from case to case. So, if you heat the necks quickly to 750 degrees, and not let the case body much below the shoulder get heated no more than 450 degrees for a very short period. The process realigns the molecules in the brass back to its original make up. It sounds very technical, but is really simple once you learn how NOT to over heat the brass. Just google it and it will show some videos... I will add... Some people never anneal, and get many firings out of there brass, and enjoy great accuracy... So you will hear mixed opinions on the subject. Also techniques are different for some, but the end result will usually be the same... [/QUOTE]
