[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 1354523, member: 11132"] Also quenching gets thrown out here and there. There is nothing I can find nor any evidence to support that qunechimg has any effect on brass other than the common difference from temp. Meaning it has no effect on hardness or srpimg back. Tbe onlh ways I know of to effecf hardness of brass is manual work hardnening and oxidative harding which can happen from the effects of gunpowder rezidue acting upon the nickle im the brass. Use to see it alot in old stored ammo or fired cases. They tend to split at a high rate stress line of the neck shoulder junction. The only thing I can see quenchi g doing is arresting heat propigation into the case body. [/QUOTE]
