My Ballistic Edge Case Annealer is on the way to the ranch! With the cost and more importantly, the availability of brass, I thought I would get more systematic about taking good care of what I have on hand.

Re: Ballistic Edge Case Annealer
Michael,
With time, I have increasingly thought about anealing brass for the same reasons. So, I'm looking forward to your results.
Wow, they're not giving those things away!

Re: Ballistic Edge Case Annealer
I will post my results as soon as I get it going but it is going to take a while to figure out the results. Given the volume I'm shooting, if it adds one life cycle to my brass it will pay for itself in less than a year.Maximumbob54 wrote:I'm eager to see if you feel like the results are worth the cost.

Re: Ballistic Edge Case Annealer
I thought I would add a couple of short videos showing the BEM 360 Case Annealer in use on some 38-55 Win cases. I think it took about 6 and a half minutes to anneal all 125 cases! Setup is 5 to 10 minutes.
