Ok so I can see the target shooters rolling their eyes already, but I am a hunter and max distance for me is 500-600m, it's s whole lot of time and pain that could be better used filling the freezer. Which is full BTW

Just my 10cents

Good point but for target shooters they want to hit the bull every time which is much smaller that the kill zone on deer.
Normally cases will last about 10 shots maybe more before they start splitting.
annealing your cases regularly will make them last about 30 shots each so if you make that same calculation its a totally different story
