Me. I don’t stretch the limits on my brass so only neck size aiming to FLS about every five or six reloads depending on the calibre or if they start to get tight to chamber

Good way to end up with a cartridge that wont chamber in the rifle. Definitely not what I want from a dangerous game rifle.

I only neck size. But always cycle every round at least twice to ensure no issues. If cartridge is at all sticky, I will pound out the bullet and full length size, then reload again. No problems yet.

FLS, but not more than necessary. More of a shoulder bump, really.

If you own more than one 404, definitely be cautious about only neck sizing. Then you would need to check cycle all rounds through both guns.
