Re: 338 lapua brass issues ( sinclair just deliverd)

On the 100 pieces (80 Lapua/20 Norma) I think I annealed after the third cycle and perhaps the sixth. I began my annealing efforts with the 338LM brass, so I'm sure I botched some up with the torch, learning how to do it.
I wrecked one Lapua when I got in stuck in my standard kinetic bullet puller and one Norma neck split after only 2 cycles, so I'm at 98 almost 6 years later!
