    Your research indicates annealing is for case life, not accuracy. Thanks for the clarification.

    What I was trying to get across was that I haven't done any specific testing to see if annealing improved accuracy as a stand alone variable. @10-Ring phrased it much better in his post.

    I've had access to the machine since I started reloading again a year ago and have had very pleasing results. It seems to be one of those things where doing it every firing can't make it worse and may improve consistency through lower ES and SD.
    10-Ring and Got Juice? like this.
