I need some insight from everyone regarding this topic. I always preferred neck sizing over full lenght sizing. The only time I full sized is when I'm using once fired brass from another rifle. Other than that, all my full lenght sizing dies are not use often. How about you guys?
Read this article( http://www.6mmbr.com/reloadingfroggy.html) at the 6BR forum. This guy full lenght size all his brass. Tried his procedure and got the following result.
