You have to get to about 250°C to start stress relieving brass. That works out to 482°F. The main trick is not letting anything you put in your oven get that hot; not even briefly. Most ovens overshoot and undershoot the control temperature setting some, especially for the first heater on/off cycle. Plus, most don't have a setting that is exactly accurate. So, stick a thermometer in the oven and make sure it never goes anywhere near 482°F. That sounds impossible for a setting in the 200°F range, but I've seen at least one toaster oven that was nearly that far off.
So, preheat, as suggested, to get past that first control cycle. If you stack two cookie sheets and put the brass on the top one, that usually leaves a thin air gap between them that will protect the brass from direct heat coming off the heating element, be it electric or gas. Pizza stones or other masses work to average the temperature and prevent direct exposure, though you don't want lead from primer residue getting on surfaces you'll cook food on. This is best done with cookie sheets or a pizza stone dedicated to brass drying.
