[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 887214, member: 2693"] I've bought brass in bags/boxes of 50-100. Took them out, resized them all, trimmed them all, deburred the flashole in all, and then worked up loads with however many cases it took. Then, once a good load was found, I'd load up 50 and the rest would remain back in the box/bag, primed, ready to load, even if it was years later. I've never witnessed anything remarkable from the original loads the the latest, even if it was 3-5 years later other than surface sheen had diminished. They shot the same as the original loads so long as I still used powder from the same jug. I'm not an expert by any stretch. I have no way of telling if my drill held annealing technique is less effective than using a machine but that's the only way I do it. Drill spins same rpm each brass and time is always about 6-7 seconds. No quenching. Seems to work for me. [/QUOTE]
