[QUOTE="tom m., post: 394609, member: 14956"] boss, mike is right. notice he said .001 AFTER springback, and then adjust to what he wants with a smaller bushing. this works, this works really well i might say. you are correct, you can NOT get your neck tension back by annealing. it will not happen, BUT you can, and i do, anneal to get the necks and shoulder softened back up. BUT, you still MIGHT need a smaller bushing then you did when the brass was fresh. annealing does indeed help you get the shoulder bumped back consistently, but it absolutely will not restore neck tension to that of fresh sticks. it also helps you get the "seal" back, ever notice older brass getting soot clear down on the shoulder, annealing should help this. tom [/QUOTE]
