Redding Type-S Neck Bushing Die Set, 243 Win Imp 40 - which order to use?

[jcampbellsmith]

I have just got the following set of dies.

When I go to resize the brass, should I use the body die, then the neck sizer or should I start with the neck sizer and then use the body die?

Your recommendations? Finally, this is the rifle:

Body then bushing. Logic- any misalignment to the neck caused by case sizing/shoulder bump will be rectified by the neck bushing. FYI- most, including myself, only size half of the neck's length and allow the unsized portion assist alignment of the bullet to the leade.

Mr M. Thanks for that feedback and the tip. Once I get the rifle home and some rounds fired off, I will try out only sizing half the neck.
