[QUOTE="Dirtrax, post: 1954262, member: 78945"] It isn’t a standard practice but I HAVE annealed cases after sizing. I did this with 3 cases when I was confirming bullet seating depth. I measured the cases 6 ways from Sunday and couldn’t find a difference. The results were identical to those annealed before sizing. As I said this isn’t my SOP but I wanted to see what would happen. A more exhaustive study could show statistically measurable impacts but I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again if it were expedient to do so. I don’t shoot for money or trophies so there ya go. So many things that get discussed are treated like matters of life and death when really they aren’t. Mostly the nut behind the trigger is the difference between success (as you care to define it) and failure than anything else. [/QUOTE]
