    Full length sizing lengthens cases meaning trimming is required. Neck sizing just enough to hold the projectile tightly is much more brass friendly and results in longer case life. It sort of depends on the cartridge but some of my 223 brass was neck sized 10 times before trimming or full length sizing
    Micky Duck and flock like this.
