@Stalker1962 did you remember to size and trim them first before annealing?

Yes, I would have though resizing after annealing would work harden the neck again which would defeat the purpose of the annealing process.

If you’ve got the time and inclination ideally you’d anneal both prior to and post sizing, that is typically how cases are manufactured.

That would both extend your case life and ensure consistent neck tension and obturation.

PS
Don't think I don't know you are checking out the books...

I see that having grasped the now commonplace notion that everyone who has given an interview at home is judged solely on the books on shelves behind them, I see you are taking this a step further by actually drawing attention to them. Truly a trend setter. Do you use the Decimal Dewey system?

 

[Rhodesianjess]

Not a bad read either, don't know if you have this one on the shelf.

[Klenchblaize]

Could be wrong, but thought it better to trim after full length resizing?

I deliberately over-trim all my brass by a minimal amount on the Lee Quick Trim as I don't want to do it too often.

You’re clearly not reloading 22 Hornet and crimping. If you were you’d need to modify either the Lee Factory Crimp Die or the Shell Holder.

In chez nous the radiators are all of that design and it has been dictated mutually agreed that three radiators are fair game for drying brass without causing elevation of the background noise level of the household.
They stack well, so I often have them three high whilst drying.
Something very satisfyingly neat about laying them all out. Not something I am normally associated with.

I need to ask about that next time (just finished almost 300 rds 223/6.5cm) as I wait until SHMBO is out before use the oven

As we were talking about relevant books earlier, I can recommend these two as worth reading. Both interesting, but I prefer the Andy Dougan one. It’s a favourite of mine.

 

[MarinePMI]

Might I also suggest a few?




Trigger Men was also an excellent read (someone borrowed my copy, and it never found it's way back home).

Trigger Men: Shadow Team, Spider-Man, the Magnificent Bastards, and the American Combat Sniper|Paperback

"Sniping in France" really needs to be followed up with:

Amazon product ASIN 1848326505
Very much written as a tribute to the former, and itself a fascinating first hand account (even if if some of Captain Shore's opinions are a little silly)

 

[potshotpat]

Chinese snipers quote. Shoot one, frightened a hundred.

This is one of the better personal accounts I've read
