So I got the rifle/s back, been doing all sorts of case prep and was "about" to purchase a salt annealer, when I read a thread on the forum stating that salt annealers do not work??? Is this correct or did I miss something? I'm fireforming .270 Win to .270AI, at some point I would like to try annealing my brass. I realize that factory brass does come annealed, however I want to anneal my own brass to make everything consistent. I was really disappointed when I read that a company did testing and their results were the salt annealer did not work. I am not sure that I can afford a $500-800 unit. Do I get a 5/8ths inch deep socket, a timer and a torch? What are other members getting for results with the salt annealing system?
