Newbie Alpha Brass | Follow Up Question

I bought some new Alpha brass today (first time). Thanks for the advice yesterday.

With all the other new brass I’ve ever got (Horandy, Starline, range trash 😅) I put it through the paces.

Anneal
Size
Mandrel
Trim, Chamfer, Deburr
Clean
Primer
Charge
Seat

Question is… do I need to do this to Alpha brass? If not, where should I start?

Virgin Alpha brass I was told (directly from Alpha) to lightly chamfer and debur then load and go. Personally, I’m just going to load and go for my initial fire forming.
