[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 463762, member: 8"] I use several different brands of brass and some of it is weight sorted. Yesterday was the coldest day of the year here and I was out shooting F-class at 1K. Shot RWS brass at 800 and 900 and then switched to Norma for 1000 yards. I also have Winchester brass that I use for F-class and it is weight sorted. If I cared enough I could measure other parameters but weight sorting gets rid of weird cases. After weight sorting I watch which piece of brass produces a flyer and throw it away. Rather than wait for my brass to fail, I anneal it at a frequency that keeps it from failing. For 308 and a match chamber, that is about once every four firing. That also works out to about once a year given the limited number of matches I shoot. For firebreathing magnums I will do it every firing or every other depending on the brass and rifle. Of course this means that I do not overly resize a piece of brass beyond what is needed for it to fit in the chamber. [/QUOTE]
