I agree that you have to consider volume, cost, and availability when deciding if annealing is worth it. If using range pickup brass in an AR, maybe you just reload them until the necks split or need to be trimmed and then throw them out and get more. But on the other hand, 100-200 rounds of Lapua or Alpha brass will last as long as most barrels, if annealed every few firings, and it is very good brass. At $100+ per hundred and limited availability, I want to make that stuff last as long as possible, and will spend the money on powder and bullets instead of new brass after just a few firings.
This right here..^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
