    Just done my first batch of annealing. Did a few hundred cases, from 20 Tactical up to 338 Lapua cases (I got both shell holders). 6 seconds for all cases and was able to comfortably hold heated cases with bare fingers so pretty confident with how far down the case the heat travelled before quenching in water (although I wore a glove once i got started). Very happy with the way it worked

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
