[QUOTE="TracySes23, post: 901785, member: 52763"] [/QUOTE]Another subject, but: To have control over actual bullet tension you need to have control over springback, which means you need springback. Annealing can greatly reduce springback, and this can remove control over it. Annealing does 3 things: [U]It increases seating forces[/U] AND reduces bullet tension AND affects your control over it otherwise. With this, your tension and consistency of it comes down to the precision in your annealing. So if you're going to do it frequently, I recommend you invest in the best available process for it.[/QUOTE] I'm at a loss as to how annealing can cause an increase in seating forces, unless it somehow increases the coefficient of friction, though the burning off of the carbon you suggest is a good lubricant.
