[QUOTE="Deputy819, post: 2197776, member: 98025"] You are correct in that consistency is ‘key’ when it comes to this beloved hobby of ours. However, I’m not sure how you would go about ‘quantifying’ the sequence differences (if any) between sizing...then annealing....then the mandrel [B]vs. [/B]annealing...then sizing....then the mandrel. You’re [B]still [/B]working the brass after annealing either way. I anneal (salt-bath) after every firing before doing anything to the brass. Unless I’m missing something (very possible....haven’t yet had my gallon of coffee this morning), but it seems your ‘dilemma’ concerns tumbling your brass once vs. twice. So, maybe just tumble your brass once [B]after [/B]annealing and sizing?🤔 [/QUOTE]
