    I always aneal my cases before sizing them. That way you get full benefit of the anealling process in both sizing and seating operations as you reload.

    Not sure why you want to knock the primers out first but have not read every post here?

    because I will be using a hot salt bath annealing process and it is highly recommended so the hot air can vent out as you put the cases neck first into molten salt mixture at about 500c

    Mate had an old guy in the rifle club ask him if he would anneal his cases for him.
    Mate said yeah yeah bring them around just make sure they are all deprimed though.
    Half way thru the annealing, kerbang! Mate was NOT impressed.

    I have recently got a frankford hand deprimer, lives in my range bag to give me something to do in my down time at the range. At home I prefer a decapping die.
