    Annealing??

    Updated response with embedded link. If not, search 6mmbr.com for "The Art and Science of Annealing". The case life is awesome. 6.5 Guys did a test and found Lapua cases to last well into the high 20's on iterations of loading when properly annealed. The best thing IMO is that annealing provides a more uniform state of brass for all the cases in a lot, yielding much more consistent bullet release. Think of a case neck like an archery release. It has to be THE. SAME. EVERY. TIME. for accuracy at distance. Hardness in the brass, is like uneven tension in the wrist, punching the release, and torquing all in one.

    Annealing??

    This is a must read for anyone planning to anneal. We want to know why we anneal, and specifically how brass anneals, so we can best plan our case annealing workflow. TL;DR - Brass annealing acts as a reset in regards to hardness causes by work (firing, resizing, etc). We want to reset just the neck/shoulder section of the case. Any further down the case wall and say goodbye to extremities, possibly life. If done correctly and at the appropriate stage of your workflow, yields a more consistent release of bullet and thereby, improved accuracy, and indirectly, longer case life. Link to Annealing Article

    300 AAC BLK Blackout brass

    @MULEPACKHUNTER It's not too shabby. Running a Dillon 750 with a Bosch router-powered case trimmer (FF honey badger) and on-press swaging. Pos1, FL resize (RCBS small rifle version), decap Pos2, pocket swage Pos3, empty Pos4, FL resize+trim (GSI trimmer adaptable die + FF honey badger adapter) Pos5, empty I do the sorting and chamfer/debur while watching the idiot box. The wet tumble takes 1500 cases at a shot. stack everything in a dehydrator at 120 deg F for 2 hours Anneallez makes short work of the annealing

    Annealing??

    Built an induction annealer a while back, didn't quite care for it. The gains of homogeneous annealing of the brass throughout made minimal difference for the time suck. Annealez works awesome. Can load a hopper and work on other things on the bench while it plinks away. Highly adjustable and simple. The ugly annealer looks to be an improved version of the Annealez, but I don't have experience with it. Gripes about the Annealez are: The wheels, they tend to tack up when warm due to radiant heat from the annealing flame, and direct contact from the cases. Deeper into lots I would notice sticking cases which would upset the applecart The flame adjustment bar was a simple eye bolt. The departure angle of cases didn't lend to natural depositing into the catch bin. I now stand my unit on the edge of my bench and let the cases fall to a bucket with a dog cone around it to catch any deflected cases. The ugly annealer appears to solve all the above.
