[QUOTE="Robbin, post: 387231, member: 12246"] I use two torches, set as low as the can go and have the internal pencil of blue flame hit the neck. My dwell times are 4.5 to 5.5. on all the brass. I know start it at 4.5, and dial it up till I get the results I'm looking for. I don't use the temp sticks anymore. Buy watching the brass, I discovered if the neck flashed orange as it came out of the flame, I was duplicated what the temp paint was telling me was correct. I don't get anything like the color change down the side you see on lapua factory brass. Just a very soft brown tint down to just past the shoulder. I never see any orange in the shoulder, just the neck and just a flash, a second or less, as it leaves the flame. My 475 temp never showed any change more than a half an inch below the shoulder using this method, while the 650 in the neck was completely gone. I can feel the difference when I neck size and seat a bullet, but the neck tension remains good. My results have been excellent. [/QUOTE]
