I want all the case life I can get, so I have gone totally to neck sizing. I'll FL size if I need to bump the shoulders back, but quite honestly I haven't had to do much of that. Prior to neck sizing, I did a lot of partial resizing. That worked well on tapered cases, but not so well on 223 and 260 cases. If you want the honest truth on what type of sizing gives the best accuracy, you'll need to ask someone else. For me, the accuracy differences (better or worse) due to the type of case sizing are of less impact on my group size than my shooting ability is.
