[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2299313, member: 1521"] You won't need to resize the necks at all. Think about it, you sized necks inward, then you expanded necks with bullet seating. What's gripping seated bullets is springback force X area of bullet bearing that force is applying to (providing pounds per sq inch PSI). That's what neck 'tension' is. Puling bullets is not sizing. It's not causing yielding of necks, nor affecting their spring back force. So it's not affecting tension. So you can re-seat bullets right back into the same interference you had after prior seating, with same tension. There will be less seating force with this because you're no longer upsizing with bullet re-seating. That extra work is done, and means nothing here. It was just extra work. [/QUOTE]
