John, The new .44/77 brass I have from Jamison sure shows some bluish heat marks on the necks and upper case. That looks annealed to me, for sure. Shoot sharp, Mike

The Jamison brass is soft enough that I can push the case mouth edge in with my thumb nail and I did not anneal them and still have not after many reloads. Good brass.

I was kind of surprised at how soft the case necks were, when fire forming mine, I was setting at the range depriming my cases and drooped one onto t he hard dirt at the firing line and it dented the case mouth. So yes they are annealed but yet they are very good cases. I would expect them to last quite a long time with a little care.
