soother223 Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Just wondering if you guys started out with a new batch of cases, how many times would you use your cases before annealing them? Also what point do you think cases go past the point of annealing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 I agree with JCS and I tend to anneal after every firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybrock Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Regards JCS Hi JCS I've recent had a quote from Bench Sorce for their machine but apparently they don't come with torches! the cheapest UL2317 torches which they recommend are about £27 each off Amazooon which torch did you get for your machine?

Davy Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 As I am not shooting in volume I use a 16 station rotary system for volume or I just use a good old fashioned annealing cup and gas used is Map or Propane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soother223 Posted August 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 So you all feel it's something you can't do by hand as it were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John MH Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Sounds complicated ... ... ... tell us more. Hopefully not, Giraud Tool are working on a induction unit but it's not yet available although my name is on the list for an upgrade kit. So you all feel it's something you can't do by hand as it were? No, you can do it by hand but its tedious if you have lots to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveT Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Fair enough...I understood that Giraud would not send outside of USA for ITAR reasons stated ......maybe my info is wrong or its just too complicated to be worth their while ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soother223 Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 That price makes it considerably more appealing than the bench source ones! If there's a decent discount I'd be interested. . I'm off to florida in 10 weeks too!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I bought my Benchsource Machine directly they shipped it with everything needed to operate including the torches. The correct gas bottles were easily found at B&Q Whilst expensive at the time I thoroughly recommend and the cost is soon forgotten over convenience. Easy to set up and run. I anneal brass after every firing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchTRG22 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I hope to built a machine soon. I now use my brass five times and than a friend of mine anneals them. But I agree that it will be better ens more constant to anneal befor every reloading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
