[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 837383, member: 5302"] In high power matches and classified as a high master, I've never annealed a case. .308 Win. cases went 20 to 30 reloads each, 30 caliber magnum ones 10 to 15 reloads each. Never had an unexplained flier from any reload. Few, if any of the best shots annealed cases after each use; some every 10 to 15 times and others like me; never. A friend shot one Federal .308 Win. case 57 times full length sizing (die had its neck lapped out to .350" and no expander ball was used) it each time reducing fired case body diameter about .003" and setting the shoulder back about .0015" each time. With his match rifle clamped in a machine rest, all 57 bullets went into a single group a bit over3/10ths inch at 100 yards. Load was 42 grains of IMR4895 between a standard Fed. 210 primer and Sierra 168 HPMK bullet. [/QUOTE]
