I've been putzing around with annealing just to see how it works. I've got a stupid little creme brulee torch, which I plan on upgrading to a real torch if annealing turns out to be a good idea. Way too slow...
Here's the question though. I shoot both M1 and M1A, both of which are pretty tough on brass. Is the extra life I'm hoping to gain from annealing going to be ruined by having to toss the brass just as early due to other problems, such as indications of imminent case separation?
I'm not currently using any hot/high pressure loads in either rifle, if that matters.
