[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1924800, member: 1521"] It's just AMP marketing, and a desperate malicious kind really. AMP attacked salt bath dipping based on it's inability to FULLY anneal. Thing is, we never ever want to FULL anneal our brass. We stress relieve(process anneal) only, which dip annealing works perfect for. Only brass manufacturers would fully anneal (some, potentially with an inductive process, most with flame), and only prior to forming. So for reloaders (who are not fully annealing), AMP system must anneal less, so they roll into the delicate attachment/timing science -to make brass meet a hardness of new Lapua. That's fine,, but super expensive to pull off, and less versatile about different desired annealing depths (neck only, shoulder, x-amount of body length, etc.). Bottom line; AMP won't be able to compete with way cheaper dip annealing. [/QUOTE]
