I anneal every firing. AMP is the bee’s knees, but I’m slumming it with a Bench Source Annealing machine. I have it set up with a single propane torch. I use a commercial plumber’s type turbo torch with a 1/2” head. It’s run off a 20lb tank. The large tank ensures a consistent flame. Adjustment, setup, and timing is pretty straightforward once you’ve got a good working theory of operation. Take notes and strive for consistency. I don’t switch calibers willy-nilly. With this type of machine, it’s useful to have a large supply of brass in each caliber you shoot. That way you can anneal in batches.
More later.
