Interesting...but I got too many unfinished projects as is.

I'm a low volume rifle shooter but I used to shoot a lot of 44 mag.
I used the water pan method to extend the life of the brass.
This was about 42 years ago and I still have some ammo loaded on that brass.

Carry on....

Have you annealed anything yet?

Post by: ren on January 04, 2022, 07:21:44 PM
Yes. I experimented with several 223 cases. Within 4 seconds the case necks glows red. I'm working on a drop mechanism and a chute for the cases to funnel into the coil. The logic board I got from MG in New Zealand works great! It also monitors current draw of the induction board to prevent a burnout. Its Arduino based with a few MOSFETs to drive servos and a stepper motor driver. All the work that needs to be done is well described in the link.
