I've watched a bunch of tutorials and read through instructions over the past several weeks and most say something about trimming cases.
I have thought about this for a while and I think I understand the idea. You want ALL your cases to be the same length for the caliber being reloaded.
BUT... on a bottle necked round for rifle, would it be better to resize/massage the brass back to the original length? Seems like say the brass is .010" over length, wouldn't a die be able to push it back to original length without having to remove material?
I've read trimming usually is done for the first reload. Not sure that's always the case but curious here or if that was just one loader's opinion.
