[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3066129, member: 15054"] You still need to use some common sense to get it in the same spot but here it is ..pretty simple. You can also use a socket and extension for the case holder/spinner I spin by hand also. The socket extension will fit into the bent U portion of the wire. The wire is 7018 welding rod I hammered the flux off of. Then hose clamped it to the bottle. This case holder is copper tubing with dinks punched into it too keep the case from falling through it. I like to keep things simple. This works better than holding your hand in the air with no rest. I think everyone should anneal starting with bare fingers holding the case..You should be done way before the case gets too hot to hold. I have made .308 from 270 cases and many other cases. I have also made 45acp from .308 cases..Yes but 45acp shot shells.. No annealing involved in that deal. But a lot of annealing in making the .308 from .270. I do not have a 270 and needed more .308 cases. What was nice about that was the neck was very thick and I could turn the necks too just fit the chamber. Was it more accurate? No not really.
