    @muzr257 I use 650F for the necks to ender the shoulder and 350F for the body below the neck. You can use 400F instead of the 350F.

    I use an AMP annealer and have noticed that some cases don't change colour at all.So it might be wise to be cautious if relying on a change in colour as the most reliable indicator.
    Predictably Lapua and Norma brass are the most consistent but even a change of cleaning method gives different colours.
    The option of sending it to someone who uses one of these machines looks like a good deal.
    Science is always better insurance than art...
