[QUOTE="thwatson2, post: 1868504, member: 56839"] I use infrared gun to check temp and the lee pot on 9 seems to hold temp pretty good. im using play- sand from Walmart. The stuff you put in a sandbox. First time you use it let the sand heat till it stops smoking, get the impurities burned off. I usually put 4 shells in at once, slightly deeper than what I want annealed then wait 20 seconds or so and remove. I base the time on getting that nice case color change but make sure the brass isn’t getting too hot above the sand, I always use a glove as you will hit side of pot every once in a while [/QUOTE]
