Just taken delivery of a case annealing machine to prep my 300 Whisper cases, will also use it to extend the life of my Lapua .223 match and Norma 6XC cases.  



Would anyone be interested in having there wildcat or difficult to replace cases cleaned (with Stainless Steel Media) and annealed for a small charge plus P&P?

Can you do .338 lap mag?

Don't see why not, I think .50 BMG requires a larger indexing plate.

Out of interest, what tumbler have you got for cleaning with your SSM? They are a bit hard to find this side of the pond! (Big ones like the Thumlers anyway).

The one from the states, needs to be watertight.

Cheers, seems the best option, I've seen some over here that are water tight, but don't have rubber lined barrels and are very small, so I figure will be very noisy!  But with the prices I've been quotes to ship a Model B ($90+), I think I'll stick to my current cleaner for a bit.

Ran 300 cases through the SSM tumbler last night, after two hours emptied it, rinsed the cases and was pleased to find them spotlessly clean inside and out, including the primer pockets.  I'd have to say that having tried Ultrasonic and traditional corn cob vibratory cleaners this was the easiest and cleanest way to getting the job done, the thing isn't to noisy either.  Just waiting for some Bullfinch nozzles now and then I'll be all set to anneal some 6XC and 300 Whisper cases.

Well have everything I now need, Tempilaq indicating paints, 350f and 650f, loads of gas two Bullfinch torches with 12mm nozzles and a shit load of really clean RUAG cases ready to be converted to 300 Whisper brass.  Shall be flashing it up tomorrow and shooting the 300 Whisper on Thursday.

Just finished doing some 7x64 cases for Rarms, colour change at the neck is more clearly visible in natural light.

I usually ditch my spent brass at work, but if anyone wants me to save it up for them I will. Currently using 7.62mm MEN & 5.56mm RUAG
