Annealeez

[DaveM55]

I have a Annealeez and love it. It is easy to operate and does a great job. I use it for 6.5 Creedmoor and 308 rifle brass.

I never seen this model before (back when I was in the market). I like it!
Since I primarily reload .223 now, I don't bother with annealing.
I typically reload the brass 5-6 times or until the necks start to split (which ever comes first) and then throw the whole batch away.
.223 brass is so cheap and plentiful, I don't bother with annealing.

Now if I was reloading 6.5 Creedmore or something like that, I'd definitely start annealing. Not sure if I'd do it by hand or spend the cash on a machine.

Thinking of loading creedmores. Why is annealing required on creedmore more than other cases.
I use a bench-source on 30BR. Nice rig once past the setup.

Due to the cost of the Creedmoor brass. I'd want more mileage.

Shame that you scrap it. 5.56 can be easily trimmed and reamed to form 380 ACP. You need to reduce the loads slightly because of lower case capacity but the round itself will function just fine.

I don't have a 380, but what the heck, send me some cash and I'll sell them to you instead!

Honestly, once fired 223/5.56 cases are so plentiful at the range. I don't bother to bend over and pick them up anymore. I have probably 10K once fired cases in storage tub. I doubt I can get through them all in my lifetime.
