[QUOTE="wjm1022, post: 1900642, member: 113806"] Never did much annealing and have been fairly successful in 1000 yard competition ( won IBS national score championship and several state championships) and long range hunting having taken several deer over 1000 yards. However this past hunting season I noticed some vertical dispersion when testing loads (408/338 Big Baer and .338 Baer) and had some very high SD using newly purchased LabRadar. After talking to Bruce Baer he informed me that I should be annealing. So being on a fixed income I decided to make an annealing machine. this is what I came up with and the results from that endeavor. Please comment on the photos of my test annealing. The Tempilaq below the shoulder is 450°F and I had 750°F inside the case mouth which melted. The cases are 408/338 and 25/284 [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_1521.jpg"]193236[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_1517.jpg"]193237[/ATTACH][MEDIA=youtube]rBDa7V16vdo[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
