Just bought some new cases for the winnie,It seems a shame to F/L size and start stretching them straightaway, can you just neck and trim them? regards griff | ||

I just run them through the full length sizer with the expander ball removed and then inside and outside chamber. | |||

You can size them any way you like but the neck needs to be sized to get them nice and round before chamfer and loading. | |||

I just neck size new cases. No need to full length size the new cases. Don | |||

I agree ...... just neck size. Ideally.... new cases should be ready to seat the bullet. BUT this is almost NEVER the case! | |||

Personally I FL each case, trim, chamfer in and out, deburr the flash hole and then square up the primer pocket but, thats just me. I like to FL to make sure everything is trued up and it gives a nice neck.
