Thats great. You'll be pleased. How many different cartridges will you use it for? Just so you know, we anneal every time the brass is fired.

Absolutely will. If you ask David, owner of Benchsource, he will tell you under-annealing is better than over annealing. If you see Orange, your dwell is too long. We had many discussions over lunch and dinner over a couple of bench rest seasons. I'll tell you everything he told me. And you'll...
I have great results with the Benchsource. I know and shoot with the owner of Benchsource and he's meticulous in everything he does. I hung out with him at his CNC shop in Olive Branch, MS and he took me through the design, manufacture, and operation of the unit before I bought mine. They are...

True I've only had three deer ever take a single step now that I think about it. Two were shot with very heavily-constructed bullets behind the shoulder @ <10 yards. They both did the 20 yard backstrap shuffle. The third was shot head-on square in the chest at about 80 yards with a 50gr cheapie...
