[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 795832, member: 34818"] It's not that you are really going to get an accuracy increase from annealing you brass. What is really happening is that the annealing process will help you maintain the good accuracy that you have always had with your newer brass. When you fire and resize your brass, it work hardens the case neck. When the case neck starts to harden, it will start to give you inconsistent neck tension on the bullet. That is what causes you to have a drop in accuracy. When you anneal your brass, it softens the neck back up and you can get consistent neck tension. Also, buying a case annealer will basically pay for itself after a while. The annealer can double (sometimes more than double) the life of your brass. That really saves you a lot of money especially when you are using expensive brass like 338 Lapua brass. I have the annealing machine that you are talking about and it is awesome. Easy to use and works great. [/QUOTE]
