As other posters have mentioned baking your brass at 300 degrees Farenheit will not weaken the brass. It is well below the annealing point. I routinely bake my brass (.45, 9mm, 30-06, .270 Win, 38 sp. and .357 mag) at 300 degrees for 20 minutes after wet tumbling with stainless steel media. One time I forgot and left 100 9mm nickel plated cases in the oven for two hours. I followed their case-life through 12 reloadings each and only three developed cracks at the case mouths over time, no different than my non-baked cases. So bake away and have fun shooting.
