I use hornady one shot.

I use to neck size all my cases but I don't keep logs of what's been shot and only FL them after one of huge batch became tight. These days when I build another rifle I try and get a Redding Sype S FL sizer so I can seize the case and pick my neck tension.

That is the way to go.
Love spray on lube.
Found the FL die with bushings to be great for most applications.
I do neck size some rifles cases as i have a couple that have never needed a body die after twenty or more firings and accuracy surpasses my ability.
Cheers
