I'm a low volume loader, so the high dollar machines were out of the question for my needs, so I built something that works for me.
Dude, you have too much time on your hands...nice setup. Little Crow mandrel?

Haven't annealed with it yet but I will say the case prep station works awesome, and the CS is great. I bought the Gen 1 before they had the aluminum wheels in all sizes but they said they were included in the original cost and would be sent once they were manufactured, got an email and they showed up same day right on ETA. Pretty awesome package for the price.

Unfortunately still haven't annealed with it, my shooting has been extremely low volume from low component inventory. But I got lucky recently and hope to get some lots finished off and cycled through, I'll try to remember to update here. The case prep portion has been flawless and super convenient though.

Here’s another affordable option. AGS Brass Annealer 3.0. I use the original AGS brass annealer and have had good luck with with. Simple, affordable, and works. Attached the link for the tempilaq method ( for finding proper temp point) per panhandle precision. Can definitely fill a difference when working with the brass right after annealing. With component prices and availability sure nice to make brass last longer and increase consistency.
