- The Annealeez Gen 3 is an amazing annealer at a great price point. Generation 3 annealing equipment from Annealeez comes with their standard indexing wheels for calibers .223 through 30-06 and additional wheel kits for calibers up to 50 BMG annealing is available on the Annealeez website. If you are looking to anneal your rifle brass, then I recommend checking the Annealeez Annealer which is the best annealer when it comes to annealing consistency, efficiency, simplicity, and price. annealeez.com/shop/

Great review.. thank you!!
Thanks, you guys have a great product!
Just ordered it on Sunday and was on its way Monday.
Great video thanks
I’m just getting started in reloading in
2023 with the cost and lack of availability this seems to more important than before
Thanks for the review! I just ordered one once I saw how well it works. It will work a lot better and more precise than my homemade annealer!
Glad you enjoyed it. You’ll be happy with the purchase, it’s a great annealer.
Wait till the wheels melt!!@@shootersresourcechannel642
Thank You
No problem, thanks for stopping by.
Very cool!! I'll definitely be looking into this!! Shouldn't the brass be falling into water to be cooled quickly?
Water quenching is not necessary with brass. The brass then would need to be dried before use adding an extra step.
You've convinced me, I'm getting an Annealeez! Do I need to get a large wheel set for 338 LM? Will the small wheels work for 20 VarTarg (essentially a necked down, shortened 221 Fireball)?
Reach out to Annealeez. They will let you know about which wheels work best or if custom wheels are needed for those rounds
No repeatability possible, and those wheels do melt!
Recently purchased the Gen 3, and I completely agree with you. However, the annealing process itself has led me down another rabbit hole. The question I ask myself is how hard was my brass before and after annealing? Using a hardness tester is the only way to tell if your annealing was effective. And have you seen the price of hardness testers.
Have you seen the precision bullet seaters the long range f-class shooters use? I seen a video where Eric Cortina had a pressure gauge on his bullet seater and was measuring the force to seat the bullets. He was measuring less force and more consistency (more importantly) with certain annealing times..seems like a good alternate method if had to invest in new equipment. Check out some Cortina’s or panhandle precision’s videos on annealing.. good content. Thanks for swinging by Robert, take care!
I'm on the fence about getting one of these annealing machines and was hoping you might be able to sway me one way or the other. I've been reloading for well over a decade now but never got into annealing. My primer pockets always gave out before my case necks split so I never saw the point, though up until recently all of my precision rifles have been semi auto. I full length small base resize my 5.56 NATO brass, and get 4 to 5 uses out of my Starline brass depending on how hot the loads are. I use a full length size die to bump the shoulder 4 thousandths on my 6.5 Grendel brass, and am at 7 reloads with both Hornady and Lapua brass without having lost a single one. I just started shooting and reloading for 6.5 Creedmoor and have large primer pocket Starline brass, no idea what to expect there. But for the cost of one of those machines I can get either 200 pieces of Lapua brass or 500 pieces of Starline, and with limited availability and my limited budget it seems hard not to choose more brass over an annealer
If you’ve had success with not annealing and happy with performance, then I would not worry about it on a limited budget. Beyond, brass life, there’s a case neck tension consistency portion to it all as well, I recommend watching some of Eric Cortina’s videos on annealing for more info. The good thing with the this Annealer is that it’s simple and will last a life time, plus it’s really fast and easy, so if you do decide to go with it you’ll likely anneal each batch of precision rifle brass you reload.
@@shootersresourcechannel642 I appreciate the info sir, thank you so much!
Wish you would show the set up,, are you doing it so the brass is brought up to a specific temp?
Set up is easy. You are shooting for 600-800F to anneal brass. Thanks for stopping by
has anyone kept data well enough to see how much the brass life has been extended?
Eric Cortina has some really good videos demonstrating the effects of annealing. It’s not all about brass life. Annealing helps create more consistent neck tension which can lead to great accuracy shot for shot, batch for batch of reloads
No repairability possible !
