That machine obviously does things in a very specific way. It must be technically doable to anneal a little less (post sizing) to just soften the brass the right amount - but I wouldn't believe anyone who told me they could do it accurately and reliably with a blow torch or salt bath.

I do own and use my AMP machine and what convinces me of why it's so Good is the science behind it all.
The book that Alex wrote gives an amazing insight into how it all came about and why it is really the only option for the perfect anneal every time.
It has taken the reloading world by storm fora very good reason.
