[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1813631, member: 12"] The answer has been proven time and time again, no, no and lastly no UNLESS you are shooting loads well below SAAMI. You cannot stop brass expansion and without FL sizing you will get the click, hard extraction and hard loading eventually. That tells you that the case is moving all the time. More importantly, you DO NOT want to size back to "factory" specs. Factory specs have to be way under the chamber specs so they will fit ANY gun. With factory specs and repeated reloading you get case head separation most of the time eventually. You want to minimally resize until it will fit that one chamber, not every chamber in the world. You are trying for .002 shoulder and about .001 on bottom of the case. That is the only way you will get a case exactly the same every time. Think about it. A small base die is set up to give you at least .003 on the bottom of the case. [/QUOTE]
