Jeez man Best of luck in healing

Anybody from Dover or surrounding areas?

I did not know this I have always bumped the the shoulder back 0.002"-0.003" This is a hunting rifle

Do you anneal??? I have never annealed....not sure if I'm boning myself by skipping out on that step I find this thread interesting and like to educate myself on how to work my brass as least as possible, and how to read when its service life is over.
