[QUOTE="sfdoc2000, post: 2049657, member: 76742"] I often pull bullets when developing a load for a new rifle or powder change or bullet change etc. Just use a neck resizing die and the rest of the case is the same as just after a full length resize. I have an issue with having to use an expander mandrel after resizing which means the neck tension with your sizing die is way too high, and the inside diameter of the case neck is too small. I start my case prep after cleaning and annealing the neck and shoulder, then use separate full length case/shoulder resizing dies, then follow with a bushing neck resizer. This causes less mechanical working of the brass. Finish up with the neck trimmer (referencing off the shoulder) and everything is accurate and repeatable. [/QUOTE]
