Hi guys, I finally got my Annie Annealer and although it took some time to get, Fluxeon/Garett was pretty good to deal with and I feel that this thing was worth the wait. Now my question is - looking that the attached pic, do you guys feel that I have my broth set correctly? You can see where the 750 degree tempilac has burned off on this practice case. This is a 6.5 Creedmoor (Hornady brass) and I have my timer set at 1.0 sec.

You want the tempilaq on the inside of the neck. If it's on the outside it will burn away much too soon.
It’s electronic induction, you idiot.


Ok, thanks
Don’t listen to that guy, you’re doing fine and making it easy on yourself. Your setting looks like about where I get it to.
If I have one piece of advice it is to vary how deep into the case shoulders you put the case in the jaws and see how that effects your timing of the neck and shoulder changing at the same time so the neck doesn’t get 2x as hot. Sometimes you have to go deeper or shallower so that the neck doesn’t turn way before the shoulders and vice versa.
