[QUOTE="catamountsierra, post: 1883141, member: 79865"] I've started using the salt bath method, which seems to work quite well. I drop the cases into water (well below where the pot of hot salt is) not so much for a quench, but to rinse of any remaining salt and keep any heat from migrating farther towards the case head. Then too, the amount of heat in the neck and shoulders area of the case once removed from the heat source probably isn't enough to do anything to the rest of the brass. Air cooling or dropping in water both work, and as I see it, it comes down mostly to personal preference. [/QUOTE]
