[QUOTE="FNA3G, post: 1198465, member: 62205"] You want the flame to "wash" over the shoulder area as the neck is the easiest portion for heat to transfer into. If you ever use tempilaq which is very helpful for anyone especially beginners you will see the tempilaq melt usually starting about mid neck. Like previously stated if its a long neck than aim for more of the middle but the shorter necks i aim for around the shoulder neck junction. As far as process goes i anneal then resize and then finally tumble, followed by trim,chamfer/debur. I found that the "residue" left behind from annealing would cause me inconsistency if left in the neck. I was worried about tumbling after annealing/resizing due to knocking the case mouths out of round but i have found runout and accuracy to be much more consistent using this manner rather than annealing last.
