I don't remember every trying to anneal nickled rifle cases, maybe someone can share their experience.
I set my machine up with brass cases then let the nickel ones through.
I suppose even plain clean brass will cause erosion of dies, even carbide ones. I called Dillon when my first carbide 223 die had worn out, they asked me how many cases I had sized with it and I told them 120k. They said that was about usual life for their bottle neck carbide rifle dies. FWIW They are not covered by the no bs warranty.
