    I was in a similar boat not too long ago and the sizing wax helps out a whole bunch. Do you have to cut your brass down before you form? What’s the process? I recently got some Templaq 750 and a propane torch for ghetto annealing. Annealing (for me) made it go much smoother.

    I gave it a quick google and the forming doesn’t look too bad but I’d still suggest annealing before you form. Looks like an interesting round and we look forward to seeing how things go! Keep us posted!

    Everything I have read says to go through first firing and then Anneal to help form brass to your chambering
