[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 265402, member: 12"] Got to agree with dave. You run magnum cartridges at top end (which a lot do here) and only neck size you are going to get the shoulders moving forward and hard chambering soon. Cases will expand at the base and the shoulder. Be prepared to size that or throw them away. Better check each loaded cartridge and see if it will chamber, if you neck size only before you go afield or you might get a surprise. Neck sizing does zero to fix that, only bumping the shoulder back with a FL or body die. A correctly fitting and properly adjusted FL die saves cases so no advantage to NS only, but lot of disadvantages. At least FL size every 2-3x. BH [/QUOTE]
