[QUOTE="VenatusDominus, post: 2739249, member: 117869"] From AMP's web site: " [LIST=1] [*]Cartridge brass melts at 915°C (1679°F). Up to that temperature it remains homogeneous (Appendix 1 - 1.1).

[/LIST] I cannot opine as to the "historic caution" of never going above 450F or the erroneously propagated "750F max neck temp" to anneal brass. If I had to guess, someone saw a chart indicating brass would anneal at 750F but failed to also see that it required 1 hour at that temperature. I know when I started in my own profession in the mid 1990's, there were many things done, especially in the OR, because "it has always been done that way" or "it just made sense".

We don't practice this kind of medicine anymore. Where is the double blind, placebo controlled study to show that two masks are better than one? I think long range shooting has entered a similar period, where we are applying science to see what actually affects the outcome versus what "traditional methods" have no effect or are, in fact, detrimental.
