Thread: annealing help please

We do the unscientific way with Makita drill but no expander. Having a great trot with 53gr Barnes loaded that way. All deer been head shot. Froggy is a smart dude but then if you shoot golf balls at 800m you must know what you are doing. Reloading is like sex. Missionary resizing is not the only way. That rod is slaying trout.
