After reading on that tempilaq stuff, I passed on it completely. Too hit and miss. What I did to get a feel for annealing was do some runs in lower light where I could make sure not to heat to a cherry red and cook off the Zinc. And then I took my feel for that time and ran the brass in light where I can watch for the oxidation iris on the neck/shoulder.
I don't get a brilliant iris like new Lapua Brass, but I get a visible iris. People talk about this "spring back" with plyers stuff and all that. I could never make sense of that. I just settled on NOT over heating with a light visible iris, and it seems to work pretty good.
