Hi to all,
My name is Harry, I have been shooting for 15 years and I have a full FAC license. My main passion is long range shooting and reloading. I am based just outside of Bath and would like to introduce myself to other avid shooters.
Best
Harry

Thanks guys,

Quick question, I currently don’t anneal my brass however would like to start . I feel this will help with SD and ES as it will give more consistent neck tension. Y views on this and if so what machines are you using?

Thanks

Welcome.

Annealing is very subjective and you can use anything from an old socket in an electric drill to GBP1100+ of programmable induction annealer. Personally I like the rotary gas systems however the current DiY hopper fed systems look very good and relatively easy to build at home.

Thanks for the post. I was actually thinking of making a annealing machine myself. The only worry I have is over cooking the brass or not annealing it correctly.
What do you use?
