Hello all.

I also anneal after two to three shoots, and have found that these last longer than cases that are left to shoot for longer.

I, of course only anneal the neck and make sure the heat does not go down pass the shoulder, as soon as the right colour is at the neck, i drop the case bottom first in water. To ensure that the same amount of annealing gets to the neck, i rotate the cases in a battery drill in front of the flame by means of an hole saw.. about 3/4'' takes most cases and shields the rest of the case from heat. With the teeth removed from an old hole saw, this makes the perfect tool.
As has been said on this Forum! Drying is gentle!!!

For me the Sun in Summer is fine. In winter, gentle heat from a home Rad is enough.

Never Rush Chaps.
