Unless you are actualy having problems with bulged cases, that sounds like a lot of work for no benefit to push every case through....
Yes it is a lot of work, but there are side benefits.

Almost all my pistol brass is range pick up, where, in what and by whom is totally unknown. So after tumbling the cases they ALL get run through the bulge buster and Factory Crimp Die. NEVER, let me repeat NEVER do I have a falure to feed from one of these cases (now that's better than American Express, priceless) And two in resizing/decaping the cases they run through the die like sliced butter and put less stress on the carbide ring on the die.

Is it more work? YES Do the cases come out shiny clean and just like new _ YES.

Your choice, your time.

And DA, yes you take the insert out of the FCD when using it with the bulge buster.
