resize cast bullets

so I went to the gun show today and purchased some cast lead 158gn SWC .357 bullets. Was thinking that I should run them though a resize die and lube with alox. I have never reloaded cast and I am worried about leading in my revolver and 1894c. Any thoughts would be gratefully welcome

Running them through a sizer would not hurt. I quit buying cast lead a long time ago. I started casting my own. My Lee 158 LSWC TL shoot great as cast, with no leading at all.
