[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2755872, member: 15054"] Sort of .. I tested that theory and done a lot of measuring in the process and the case when neck sized will not be the same on the first neck sizing as it is on the second or third or fourth , each time you shoot it and neck size it the case will grow tighter and tighter until you get a stiff bolt on closing. The case will also continue to grow in length and will need trimmed eventually. I did the test on a .308 Lapua case I wanted to see when the case would fail.

Each gun acts different though. And it is something you will need to experiment with if you do not want to leave any cards on the table. I did modify my FLS die and it minimally sizes the case and only pushes the neck back less than .001". More reading for you.
