[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1365065, member: 4191"] The only bullets that are suitable for annealing after manufacture are the Berger style bullets with the hollow copper jacket tips. It's impossible to anneal copper jackets in direct contact with lead or plastic, without melting the lead/plastic. Annealing Berger-style bullets is an effort to help enable expansion at reduced/lower impact velocities, whenever I've read about it. [/QUOTE]
