I'm currently doing 338 formed from LC 308 brass.  I measure the needed time using tempilac, but it's always the same.  Using a small quiet but focused flame I spin it slowly in a battery drill and deep socket.  I drop the brass in the deep socket with tweezers and count to 5 seconds and pick it out and drop it in a bowl of water just so I don't burn myself when flailing around on the gun bench looking for something.  The LC brass gives off a very slight green flame occasionally just as I pluck it out and drop it in the bowl, but CS is right, don't do that or you will over heat it.  The brass has just started to turn a dull red color when it's done.  You'll find your way, just be conservative at first and don't over do it.
