[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 916381, member: 41122"] People avoid annealing the body because if it were annealed it would become too soft to properly contain the pressure of the ignition and almost certainly rupture possibly damaging rifle or even the shooter. Yes in fact you can get a die to bump the body in just a few thou., they are called body dies and a number of manufacturers make them. I personally use a redding neck die set that included a body die with it. I dont use it much because my little rifles dont stretch brass enough but to need a bump every 6 to 8 firings. [/QUOTE]
