Re-size after annealing?

Killshot

X's matter....but 10s win (but damn, Xs feel good)
Just annealed 150 four-times fired cases. Prior to annealing they were sized then cleaned using stainless media.

The Bench-Source annealing machine is terrific. The cases look like they just came out of the Lapua box.

The question is, would/do you resize the necks after annealing?

I use Redding full-length S bushing dies with the expander removed, FWIW.
 
This came up once a few months back and I think it was about a 60-40 split with Size After getting the most votes.

I anneal,,then size.
 
I usually size during annealing and then use a pair of pliers to seat the bullet. It helps me achieve my "defeat list".
 
Yeah, I have the seating pliers on order...

Dang, I hope I'm not on your list! Oh, no....
