    Exactly. I tried neck sizing for a couple of years. Tight chambers in the field. Need to keep count of how many times you neck only.

    Went back to FLS but measure it now and same accuracy.

    If I need to pull bullets. Then I do a part neck size when I load the cases again. That's it.
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.
