Josh: "sensop, Just because you never heard of this technique and choose not to do it does not make it wrong. ..."

Well, Josh, I didn't actually say it was wrong. In fact, I use a taper crimp on my pistol loads. That's near to the same thing. Actually I have heard of it being done, but not as a "technique", as you call it, but as a way to try to correct a mistake. If you need to "resize" a loaded round, then something is amiss. It shouldn't be a routine operation for properly adjusted dies which are in good condition, with quality components.

Sorry if you felt put out by my comment. I was hoping some other posters would give some discussion on full length resizing of loaded rounds. Could be I learn something here too.

I would have taken this to email, so as not to distract from the thread subject, but you've chosen to remain somewhat anonymous in your profile.
