Sure, but I think he was correct in pointing out the pitfalls of the Brownell-recommended temperatures. Especially since he had performed the actual analysis to determine the lack of Martensitic hardening present in Vintage doubles. This was also independently confirmed to me by the owner of an industrial heat treatment firm, who recommended that I allow the pack to cool to lower than critical temp before quenching. This falls in line with Gaddy's recommendations.
I'll be confirming this myself once a nagging hand injury heals. For those of you out there who have sent me sets, this is the reason for the delay. I don't want to take the chance on dropping anything as well as the safety considerations when performing high temperature processes.
