To make .32 Remington Cases from .30 Remington Cases, do I just run it (.30 Remington brass)through a .32 sizing die? Or do I have to first expand the neck in a seperate operation?

Will they be close to the right length?

That operation is similar to making 8 x 57 cases from .30-06 (at least as far as the neck expanding portion). I've never had any trouble simply running the parent case through the die with expander in place and accomplishing all in one stroke. Be sure to lube the insides of the .30 Rem necks.

The finished length would be on the short side, if anything, so no need to worry about trimming.

IF the .30 Rem. cases are UNFIRED ones, basically all you have to do is to expand the necks so they will hold a .321" bullet.
