I was talking about no dies or primers for 308 at any of the brick and mortor stores then I went online to buy some reloading supplies. No luck then some Roid Head starts unloading on me?? You all better wake up! The New World Order in buying all the ammo and reloading supplies so they can control you!..Good Luck!
WTF dude, are you retarded?
- you gave your email out
- you suspect the fed
- you write like a raving lunatic
- you suspect the new world order
but most of all,
- you bought a bushmaster
Quit spewing nonsense in this guy’s thread.
You are bold to tell me what to do. You don’t have clue whats going on. The government is the enemy, you are asleep.
The only reason your not asleep is because you smoke to much meth.
For annealing the case necks if you want a certain temp they sell temp sticks at most welding supply stores.
It is remarkable that you can detect meth smokin through type…:rolleyes:
It’s remarkable that you can’t see that the guy is a loon.:rolleyes:
I’ve seen all kinds of brass annealing devices available but they don’t seem like they would be to difficult to make.
Is annealing worth the cost? You have to pay for the fuel after all to squeak a couple more reloads per piece of brass. Not being a reloader yet (haven’t found anyone I trust yet to teach me) I don’t really know the cost to anneal cases but that might be something to consider for some.
In my opinion, it’s worth the cost. Brass maintains more consistent neck tension and lasts longer (important at times like these). I thought I would never see the ROI when I purchased mine a couple months ago, but am glad I did. The fuel consumed is pretty minimal, all things considered.
I don’t know, but I don’t think it’s worth it to me.
The returns seem pretty rapidly diminishing for something like this… Nevermind the fuel cost — propane is cheap — there’s the cost in time or money or buying or building an annealing machine, and then the time spent feeding it cases.
I don’t mind spending time on reloading, but I want as much efficiency and as little tedium as possible.
The answer, as always, is it depends.
How expensive is the brass you are using?
How many times are you firing said brass now before you get splits, etc.?
Are you working by hand, or do you have more capital equipment to recover costs on?
Most importantly, how much do you shoot annually, and how many years will you be doing so?
Annealing does more than just allow you to extend brass life. As another poster mentioned, it also helps maintain consistent neck tension which improves accuracy. If you want to make the best ammo you can possibly make, annealing on a regular basis is a good step towards doing so.
Again, I can only talk for myself, but at this point annealing is not very appealing to me.
On the other hand, though I’ve been reloading pistol cartridges for decades, I’m just starting on bottleneck rifle cartridges. Once I’ve loaded my 1,000 pieces of brass once or twice, and once I’ve built my homemade rotary tumbler and dryer, then maybe I’ll get around to building an annealing machine…
Bwhaha. Dude, I wish I could get some roids. FYI, my avatar is Macho Man.
So I heard the Freemas-ilati bought up all the small pistol primers and dies to deprive us of the ability to combat tyranny.
