I turn most cartridges, but not all. Depends on the chamber & fit.Mike: do you turn the full neck then partial neck size on 1/8" for tension?
I shoot a Cooper M21 in 223(factory chamber), and there is no need to turn for this, it shoots excellent with standard Lapua brass.
IMO, there is no set benefit to annealing every reload, and unless you can do it perfectly consistent there can be detriment.
If you load develop with constant & perfect annealing, then you may or may not benefit. No way to predict this.
As far as FL sizing necks, there is no good in this. It's bad all the way, just as seating bullets into donut is bad all the way.
I bushing/partial NS for ~1/8-1/4". My loads & targets tell me what they like.
