[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 668911, member: 24624"] I also don't think it's a given that you necessarily need to anneal. For example, you might start with good brass such as Lapua. Shoot moderate loads in moderate cartridges and be kind to your brass. Then, when you think it's time to anneal, stockpile the old and buy new brass. New brass means starting over with your brass prep/culling. But, these are choices you make depending on your shooting requirements and objectives. There are costs to buy, prep, fireform new brass and costs associated with annealing. If you conclude it's better or more cost effective to anneal, then it needs to be done right. Or, you've gained nothing. Annealing just hasn't logistically been an option for me for a while. So, I'm accumulating a lot of brass. -- richard [/QUOTE]
