[QUOTE="rcwinkel, post: 1760084, member: 108336"] [LEFT][SIZE=14px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=rgb(20, 20, 20)]As far as annealing, I suspect either unit will produce like and repeatable results. [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT] As I understand, AMP figures out the optimal annealing time itself, which is pretty nice. Giruad/Fluxeon requires me to use Templaq to figure out the appropriate annealing time. Once determined, I store the annealing time in a log - that helps when going from one caliber to another and back again. AMP requires you to manually insert each case into the unit. Giraud lets me load up a hopper. There are exceptions to every rule; I don't know how AMP handles thinned neck walls. I've annealed some brass that was converted from one caliber to another and required that the necks be thinned. I ended up running a special process with the Giruad/Fluxeon to ensure the shoulder reached the proper temperature without overheating (read that, MELTING) the thinned neck. I have no idea how or if AMP handles that special need. Yes, an induction annealer is very capable of easily melting a case. I had to prove it just because. I'm a guy :) [/QUOTE]
