[QUOTE="Beneviolence, post: 1362386, member: 99245"] At the risk of being blunt, that's not how it works. Annealing is a three step process that requires the cold worked material at sufficient temperature for a certain amount of time; it does not require a specific cooling rate. Word hardening the material influences neck tension because when you go to size it back to the pre-fired size that your bushing is set to, it now has a higher yield strength and associated elastic strain region and will spring back. This decreases your neck tension as it becomes more and more work hardened. [/QUOTE]
