Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles Which case annealer do you like?

I have a Ken Light annealing machine. Due, I am sure, to my being dense, I cannot make it work to my satisfaction. Can anyone suggest a relative high volume annealer that works well, quickly, and reliably? I will be annealing 3-400 cases at a time, and often.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I use a lithium drill and gas torch as well but have a simpler case holding system. I use a deep socket and it is much quicker to drop a case in and drop it out. Three sockets take care of the different sized cases.

Lately I have been using the Anneal-Rite (www.cartridgeanneal.com.) and it works very well--and can crank 'em right out. Once I get it set up and running it would do a case every 6 seconds. Very simple design so not expensive.

You haven't given up on the candle have you? Bear

No, I haven't! Still use that method when annealing 20-50 big game cases, as it takes less time to set up.

Love running that torch right under some powder canisters.

and seriously, dude.. clean your [bleep] chit up.

You dont like my little work bench? Or are you referring to my table? Those boxes are my storage containers.

I like your work bench. It looks better than mine.

Thanks, John. It looks very interesting and efficient.

I have been happy with my Giraud.Once you get it set-up and adjusted,you load the hopper and watch it work.Cartrige changes are not hard to do, or time consuming. Lightman

I still like my candle and a damp towel.
