Like many who have posted here, I neck size only with all my cartridges, hunting and target. After a few firings and stiff chambering, I use the Redding body die to restore easy chambering. I use L.E.Wilson bushing neck dies with an arbor press and have several bushings for each cartridge to enable varying the neck tension. The Wilson dies resize the neck to within about .12" of the shoulder, and this leaves this amount of neck at close to chamber dimensions. I think that this feature gets the loaded round better centered in the chamber and this results in better accuracy.
Anyone still neck size only?
