So getting ready to start shooting a single shot in 7-30 Waters. In prep for that, I bought a lot of 50 brand new unfired Starline .30-30 brass. I lubed and ran one through the full length sizer, took almost no effort and it looked to me like it didn't even do anything but size down the first half of the neck, but it chambered easily, so I primed it, a light load of 700X and a plain based cast bullet, shot it and it seemed to have perfectly formed a 7-30 Waters case.
So I went through and ran the rest of the brass through the sizer, but haven't primed or anything yet. Should I anneal these before fireforming them or is it a waste of time?Like I said, the brass is unfired. Sure seemed easy on that first one, too easy in fact. I sure don't want to have a bunch of split necks or something with the rest of them.
I have a Redding neck sizer die and will only neck size after forming.
Should I anneal or wait until it's all been shot a few times? I don't plan to load this very hot, 100 yard cast bullet target shooting is the goal.
