    The steps I folllow

    Deprime
    inspect cases
    Anneal - every 5th use
    Full length size
    Ultrasonic clean
    oven dry at low heat (120 C), air cool on clean towel
    inspect cases
    prime, load with powder and projectile,
    store
    shoot
    repeat process.

    I have a large ultrasonic cleaner (can hold over 200 cases in the basket)
    I use 2 x teaspoons of citric acid (cheapest from supermarket) & 2 x teaspoon of dishwashing liquid
    Fill with boiling water, add cases and clean.
    The longest cycle my cleaner does is 8 minutes. I cycle is enough initially, after a few loads 2 cycles.
    Arrange clean wet cases on an over tray, fan bake at 120 C for ten minutes, cool on clean dry towel.
    Tikka7mm08 and flock like this.
