[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 217271, member: 2852"] The answer to your first question is yes. It eventually will get tight in your chamber and will need to be full length sized. ANswer to question 2 is also yes. As the brass grows to fill the chamber in all directions (predominately forward) it gets to the point where it allows no tolerances inside the chamber and the bolt will get hard to close on a loaded round. The REdding body die will most likely solve this problem but now that Redding makes bushing FL sizer, it would be better to get it and a Comp seater and you'll negate the need for a body die (most likely) and you can get an "S" type neck die seperately later if you feel you need it. Personally, I am starting to favor the FL bushing die for everyday use. It can be set up to just push the shoulder back .001 or .002" and still control neck tension with bushings. Testing this method and just the neck sizing method together in my competition rifles have proven the FL method is just as accurate (as long as it is only pushing the shoulder back .001" to .002").
