[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2731405, member: 74061"] Tempilac wasn‘t much help for me and I believe I under-annealed trying to use it. It turns black and it’s messy. I was overthinking it and i get excellent results without trying to get too scientific. Trick is to do them all the same every time. I turn the lights out and go till I see the glow And I make note of the time that it takes. I get the anneal marks I’m looking for and they don’t extend lower than 1/3 of the case. For medium cases like 308 and creedmoor that takes between 7 and 11 seconds in the flame. 222 gets hot much quicker than 28 Nosler. I set the dial for the time and let it run till they all go through. [/QUOTE]
