[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1102763, member: 10755"] Your quote regarding brass can be work hardened is only partially correct. Brass that is at the correct grain structure can be worked and annealed indefinitely, but brass that has been sortened too much, by annealing past 650ºF, cannot be re-hardened, it is ruined as cartridge brass and should be scrapped. Annealing correctly is balancing flame temperature and time, done correctly, it can outlast the user. Cheers. lightbulb [/QUOTE]
