[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 2031414, member: 2736"] Everyone is making to big of an issue about the cost, and don't realize that good ammo will save you money and frustration when poor shots/groups plague you. We dint have to buy the most expensive Annealer to get a good anneal. you just have to be consistent in what ever process you use. I built mine out of spare parts that was on hand to try and eliminate the Human factor. I was not very consistent with several methods I tried and with a Brinell Tester at hand, was able to find my short comings. So I went with something that eliminated the Human factor of timing and had to work at improving the set up for consistent results. I only used Templaq to set the time and then ran the brass clean and polished to view and test the results. It is hard to hit the temperature on the head but the consistent annealing was greatly improved. Not everyone has access to a Brinell tester but you can be consistent. The expensive machines will only cost more, they wont do any better that a less expensive unit set up correctly. Get/use what you can, and work at getting consistency of results. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
