6BRX neck turning

What would be the best way to resize the neck on 6brx fireformed brass so that I could clean up the necks. Does anyone make a non-bushing neck die in 6brx?
 
Tim:

Use a Redding type "S" 6mmBR die backed out .098" Use a .265 or .266 bushing.
Then use a body die for the rest of the case.

I turned my new 6BR brass, without cutting into the shoulder, before fireforming. The idea is that since part of the neck will become the shoulder after fireforming, this would be a simple way to turn brass and ensure no donuts. That's the theory at least. :) The only thing I did prior to turning is use an expander mandrel. Lapua brass has a pretty tight neck out of the box.
