I bought a set of LEE dies for my 06. I buy new brass and full-length size them to get rid of any defects ect.
After that I reload and fire, depending on how hot the loads are and times fired, I will neck-size for 3-5 uses. Then I will full-length size once again. For all my hunting ammo I use only full-length sized brass to ensure proper fitting.
The purpose of neck sizing is to not stretch the case as much as full length sizing does and gives longer brass life for more reloading. Neck sizing is supposed to be better for accuracy as the shell has expanded to the dimensions of your chamber and will be a perfect match, lining it up better. Get yourself a neck sizer and see how it works, I have heard that occasionally full length sizing is more accurate. BTW once you neck size the brass you can only use it in that particular firearm until you full length size. Take Care. Esox357
