Thats the way to go mate...whether you need the FLSizing die for a while, or ever, atleast you have it.
You can also learn with it for the time you do need it.
The only thing ill add the great info you've already got, is in my opinion, dont neck size before you test chamber the cases.
I cant see how the case neck can be of a wider diameter than that in the chamber after theyve been fired, so test them for tighness before you re-size them in any way...
That way, if you need to FL size them, you havnt wasted time neck sizing first, & not unnecessarily working the brass.
Also, im not a fan of test feeding empty cases ftom the magazine...i think you're better served to place each case in the ejection port & tip the rifle so the case falls part way into the chamber, then close the bolt.
Although feeding empties from the mag is more fun, you'll run the risk of damaging the necks when feeding that way...so be careful if you do it.
The man who knows everything, doesnt really know everything...he's just stopped learning...
