Any problem with reloading the cases without resizing? Do you loose neck tension? I do use Lee factory crimp dies.

I keep extra bottleneck expander/decapper rods with the decapper removed for just such occasions. Just remove the decapper rod on pistol dies.
Reminds me that I need to order some for the redudant portable reloading kit too.

Yep went ahead and removed the decapping rod and fully resized the case. Which meant I had to bell the case mouth again too! I pulled the cases as I was using load data from the Lyman 51st addition. When I checked with the hornady manual that I had coming but couldn’t wait for lol ,I realized that the charges between the two manuals were not close. I was loading the 32 h&r mag with 85 gr xtp. Figured that since it was a hornady bullet I’ll go with their manual. Any hoo all loaded and ready to go!
