Thanks for the info.
I already have a set of Lyman dies and ordered 250gr round nose in .356 from buffalo arms. I'm going to fire form some brass this weekend from 8x57, Im new to reloading and a little unclear if I need to fire form or if I can resize my brass with my current dies.




Wouldn't hurt to anneal the brass down to the shoulder but sizing fired brass in your dies may be doable without annealing. I have never tried to fireform brass to neck size, only to form case shoulders, but it can of course be done.
If you have some cheap used brass you can experiment a little before settling on your preferred method.
