[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1412539, member: 10291"] While the OP’s testing protocol looks to be excellent, and much appreciated, IMO, it may be difficult to draw general conclusions. Being an alloy, brass differs with each manufactures specific process, and can very well vary “within” each manufacturers particular process. The copper/zinc ratio in particular, effects the hardness qualities, and this in turn will influence the annealing requirement. I have personally found differences between particular brands of brass that influence the degree of annealing required to maintain a consistent neck tension/low ES. This has ranged from frequent to none at all. Interesting article: [URL]http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2011/09/cartridge-brass-alloys-revealed-by-x-ray-spectrometers/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
