[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1618633, member: 10755"] I write the powder type and charge weight on each shell with permanent marker. If I'm testing different bullet weights as well, rare for me, I write that on as well. Another thing I do is to draw an index line across the case head, using different colours to denote new, once fired, twice fired and so on. I use green to denote that that case has been annealedmy system goes; Black=New Blue=once fired Red=twice fired Pink=thrice fired Purple=fourth firing Green=fifth firing and annealed. Then it gets 2 stripes and starts again. After the 2 stripes, they get put in the bag that I no longer take note of firings, just use until necks split or other failure takes place. My comp brass is handled differently as it gets annealed every sizing and stays with that barrel. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
