[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 422160, member: 21068"] I hear what you are saying "a lot of work to get my cases setup", and Lapua brass isn't cheap. The stuff I am buying is $1 a piece. I've got to neck them down first and then I'll also have to fireform, but the first fireing has to be without a bullet because the gun has got a tight neck. Then the cases will have to be neck turned before a loaded round will even chamber and fireformed a 2nd time (don't want to turn necks until I know where the new shoulder will end up from the 1st fireform) ..........all this before I can even begin load development. With all this work, it very well may be worth annealing in order to make the brass last longer. Personally, I don't think I'll anneal until it looks like I have to. I just don't want to add any more steps to the process than I am already having to do. I may end up having to anneal anyway, but I am keeping my fingers crossed for now. [/QUOTE]
