What full length size (338 Lapua) to bump shoulder back slightly?

[WEATHERBY460]

What full length die is best to be able to resize once fired/fire formed brass and be able to slightly bump? Thanks

I use a Forester FL die for my 338 when I need to bump the shoulder.

Will a cheap RCBS work?

Yes, any brand of die will bump the shoulder of a cartridge if set up correctly,.

A neck die... No once-fired case will have grown to the point the shoulders need to be moved.

Hornady makes universal-for-caliber neck only dies that don't need a bushing. I have a 25 WSSM neck die that I use with whatever bushing I need.

After that point it's all about does the die work with your chamber. The cheaper the die the more likely not IMO. Will be cut to a minimum chamber spec and will tend to overwork brass unless you're lucky.
