Many years ago I jumped down this rabbit hole . This is what I found with a rifle that was a known for its accuracy.
Annealing only help with velocity spread but didn’t change accuracy . Of course for long range it would but not short range .

Case prep was a not a big factor .

Of all the things I tried the biggest factor that I found was bullet run-out . Check your run out and not all reloading dies are good at keeping minimum runout .
I found that with certain dies one needed to partially seat the bullet , rotate the case 180 degrees and seat some more.

There is certainly nothing wrong with trying to eliminate as many variables in the process.
And just when you think you have it all figure out???Welcome to reloading and shooting .
