[QUOTE="aushunter1, post: 1912304, member: 57533"] For your reference the drops or liquid your referring to is called Templaq You miss understood me, I am asking how YOU know what temperature the brass is reaching?? Sight annealing by colour does not work as different brass & cleaned/not cleaned brass will change colour differently. So chances are your either under annealing which does nothing or over annealing which is dangerous. I have been annealing for nearly 5 years now, I actually made my own annealer! [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/my-two-diy-projects-build-one-brass-case-annealer.242422/[/URL] False Everyone has their own preference but it does not damage or change the metallurgy of the brass. If you get it wet then you have to dry it again. Myself, I quench. Why? Because I have found that when using my machine there is a fair bit of heat transference from the case neck towards the case web when the case neck gets to 750*F for 4 to 5 seconds, so my theory is to stop it in its tracks. Each to their own though! [/QUOTE]
