[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 2535286, member: 87371"] Agree with others who say you should resize AFTER annealing. As for trimming case length, I think this should occur early in the process -- before running the case into a sizing die. I say that because a long case neck would run THROUGH the sizing portion of the resizing die, which you don't want to do. For trimming, I use the Lee trimmers with the case holder chucked in an electric drill. Quick and thoroughly acceptable process. I then debar and chamfer the case mouth after trimming the length, while the case is still in the electric drill. For annealing, I use a hand-held induction heater. ~ $200 on eBay. [/QUOTE]
