Very effective-necessary for initial re-sizing of wildcat cartridge cases from another case, i.e.: 30-06 to 338-06 or 35 Whelen.
And all wildcats from the .348 WCF case. Will also save brass and add life to same.

4-5 firings for brass using jacketed bullets, every other firing for cast bullet brass.
I am..........disturbed.

Once the case has been fired 3x.
The 1st .308 I used for F-Class would start to throw wonky vertical flyers on the 7th loading. It's actually the only rifle I've kept track of firings/results well enough that I can say case-necks were the problem, when it started, and what fixed it. So, I figured if I just cut that number in half I doubt I'll run into an issue.

With black powder cartridges for long range target use, every firing.
I really didn’t start annealing smokeless cartridges to much extent until I read an article written by MD. I was surprised at how much better groups I got with several cartridges after annealing regularly.
I prefer classic.

Good idea, but not in my regular routine as I have mostly hunting rifles and shoot near maximum loads. Brass usually doesn't last long enough to worry about it. If I get another target rifle that will change. 41
