Excellent stuff.

Now, how do I order the Tempilaq as well as the annealing cup? :)

We are out of Tempilaq at present however we have annealing cups in stock in many sizes from .223REM through to .338LM and I can always machine one for a specific cartridge case. Biggest I have made to date were for brass 8 bore. The annealing cup can be ordered either by email shed at shootingshed.co.uk or via the website http://shootingshed.co.uk/oscom/product ... ucts_id=35

Just an FYI, I found tempilaq here yesterday. They also have tempilstik, however only in 700F not 750F.

is the thinners absolutely necessary to get the tepilaq off...?

TG, email/ring and ask them about stock, it has paid off for me in the past.

Oh, I just meant that they don't list 750F tempilstik on the website.

I'm unsure of actual stock levels. although I do need some. was wondering if any thinners would get it off the cases as opposed to having to buy their actual stuff as I have loads of cellulose thinners in the garage... >.<

So what temperature is best for annealing cases?

"The critical time and temperature at which the grain structure reforms into something suitable for case necks is 662 degrees (F) for some 15 minutes. A higher temperature, say from 750 to 800 degrees, will do the same job in a few seconds. If brass is allowed to reach temperatures higher than this (regardless of the time), it will be made irretrievably and irrevocably too soft." - http://www.6mmbr.com/annealing.html
