I don't doubt that a lot of folks have done fine with having never annealed their cases. But I will bet you too that a lot of folks are experiencing certain problems but not reaizing that these problems are associated with hardened brass necks......that can be remedied with annealing. I can...

You never know......add another teqnique to your handloading process, and you may be surprised to find out what you have been missing all this time. (maybe.) But, now don't get me started. You've already seen my pictorial of What you can do in the privacy of your closet..... right? Well...

The best thing for starters is to go to youtube to get a visual of how and where flame is applied to the case. This will introduce you to the process. DON'T take everybody and anybody there as literal or as gospel until you have done a LOT of researching. There are some professionals and...

There's different things that go into play with how smooth your bullets will seat.....and it's not just annealing alone. But without annealing, I just can't begin to get consistant and uniform tension with how the bullets seat in the cases. I exclusively use S neck bushing dies which controls...

I should anneal my brass no less then once for every 3 or 4 firings, but I don't, and sometimes I let it go for 4 or 5 firings. (but then, I also don't compete and risk losing a trophy over it) It doesn't hurt if you do it more often then that......the more the merrier. You can tell when it's...

Don't buy a 1000 carton to try it. I only invested $4 in a 100 pack of Federal mag primers and found the pressure increased substantially on an already accurate 168 Hornady load from out of my AR 308 (AR10). The primers flattened out real bad and the accuracy went to hell. Your results can...

I have converted a spare bedroom closet into a central headquarters for my favorite sport and pastime. Of course I'm talking about handloading. (...cartridges that is) This is a good means to keep all the stuff neat and orderly as well as to be able to reload my cartridges out of sight from...

While I am not advanced enough in this sport so that I have been machining my own parts or working with rifle bolts, I also own that same kind of tool and have used it to measure and/or produce the angle of dihedral in the wings of radio control airplane which is an important aspect of the...

.. .. Here is how our RCBS 10-10 scale looks as it comes from the factory; .. .. This is the modification we want to make to the scale, so it will have graduation tick-marks that we can use for weighing bullets and sorting them by weight; .. .. .. .. In order to sort bullets by weight...

I respectfully disagree with you folks that think this is just a matter of supply and demand. These people have been dealing with an established fraternity of shooters through the years practically on a first name basis, with Lester Bruno himself having been on the shooting circuit for a long...

This has NOTHING to do with the typical long waiting. Nor does it have anything to do with the inept manner that Bruno's has left all of you indefinitely sitting in the dark without communication........ BUT IT HAS EVERYTHING to do with the unethical price gouging. I could care less about...

.....and only $59.95 per 1,000. Minimum order 3,000. Great folks.

Jay, I don't subject my rifles to nearly the amount of time and use that you or others here might. The few times that I have had my rifle out at the range it has stood up to my standard cleaning routine. But I confess that with such minimal use, I probably haven't put the rifle finish to the...

Dan, Your opening "Once again" remark was condescending and unecessary. Thousands of folks, myself included, have been satisfied with Duracoat. It has served me well on my AR15 barrels which I didn't have to bake in an oven. I wasn't coming here asking you which brand paint to choose and then...

I was saying that I was already comfortable with Duracoat having used it already, and thus don't have to go through a learning curve with it as I might have to do with Ceracoat. I was also saying that I don't hunt or subject my guns to adverse conditions requiring something more durable then...

While I would concede that Cerakote is a more durable product, Duracoat is still a hardy enough finish which should hold plenty good enough on a well cared fo target rifle. After using cheap oil based enamel paints like Rustoleum in my spray guns (for radio control planes), I was amazed how easy...

Ok Al....... when I've completed my 6.5 Creedmoor project about 4-6 months from now and 200 hours of labor later, I'll be sure to post the pics here so you can tell me that it looks even better then my true-oil gloss finished 22x47L rifle that you really liked. .....remember that? Boy time sure...

Jerry, I was not inferring that Bruno's or any other company who is subjecting customers to long waits for delivery was being unreasonable. Nor am I oblivious to the hectic and difficult times a company may be going through right now. What I was trying to say was that Bruno's should still have...

I have a Remington brushed stainless VSF or VSSF 700 BDL rifle with a fluted barrel and the standard factory Remington stainless triggerguard and magazine hinge plate. I'm going be replacing this Remington trigger guard assembly with a matt black Badger style detachable magazine assembly. I want...

I think Benchrest Central should have a new forum named "Where's Bruno?" . :confused: Between here and the other accuracy websight this "Where's Bruno" topic has been constant for the last 4 months. I'm sorry some of you guys have gotten stuck in the middle of an order and have been left to...
