[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2584107, member: 101791"] My question is: I am stepping down a 280AI case to 6mm. It takes me 4 time with bushing to achieve the 6mm neck size. I believe you are stating that the case should be anneal before sizing the case to be fire form it. I don't care about extra steps. That life. I already have some many steps one more doesn't trouble me. I am just trying to confirm that you feel that anneal the case before the first firing. It also been stated that annealing should be done before sizing the cases, which I totally agree with that, because of heating the case changes it some. Here my steps: Set case length and trim all to same length, Cut the necks for thickness, Reduce the necks to 6mm from 7mm, Clean the flash holes, set primer pocket depth, Do a volume weight check. Clean and dry the cases as need. Then load and fire form the cases with bullet into the lands. De-primer case, anneal, clean case. set to sizing and load again. Missing anything? [/QUOTE]
