[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2918463, member: 115658"] "Tipping brass into cold water or allowing it to slow cool makes no difference for annealing or enlarging crystalline structure reduced in size by work hardening. The goal is to eliminate brass spring back for uniform neck tension." I like to tip the hot necked cases over into cold water so I can observe the auditory effect of hearing them sizzle. A tipped over case indicates that case has been annealed so that case will not undergo a 2nd annealing process. Plumber's MAP gas burns hotter than propane, like MAP gas 3600 F when mixed with air.
