A while back this thread talked about annealing.
https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...nealing-for-those-who-doubt#Post18307350Recently I acquired an Amp Annealer. So I have been using it and doing some testing comparing the Amp to the salt bath.
The Amp is faster, hands down. And immediately ready without waiting for the salt to heat up.
With the salt I know exactly what the temperature is, and I dont with the Amp.
So I tested with 223 and 308. I have fired side by side, mixed, and every way I can think of to show a difference in accuracy and speed between the two.
I cant find it. I suspect there are differences in the metallurgy, but I don't think that's ever going to matter with me. One of the test was to use brass from the same lot in 308 and fire it 30 times, annealing every third shot. No difference that I can tell.
I will do some more testing when I figure out a way to show the difference. But for now I'll use whichever one is handy.
I'll report back if I find anything.
