See, it's settled then!  Chris will buy it and we will abuse his friendship by using his fancy toy more than him! :chuckle:  I'll have a shiny new toy in July that will need playing with :tup:

That fancy new stick of yours will need the brass to be annealed!
I've got a brand new 50 lot of Norma brass I haven't touched yet and about 3000 243 projectiles :chuckle: and probably enough powder and primes to burn this barrel out twice.  I'm down :tup:
Can those 50 brass make it through all 3000 pills!?

the above mentioned 243 brass was a 30 lot. When I finish shooting those the lot will have shot 2400,Hornady brass. I think that too could be part of the test lol

One tip for anealing I was giving and I'm not sure how accurate the info is but it makes sense to me.  Use a very large cooling tank. If the water temp changes much threw your batch then you can loose consistancey. I use a large tub with ice water. That way I can keep it the same temp threw the whole process. Faster you Heat and then cool the brass the less heat creep you get in the shoulder and below.

You mentioned using a drill?  Fill me in on that a bit if you could.  I've just always torched then water bathed.  What's the drill for?
