I'm going to pull the 75gr amax bullets from the remaining loads I made because I've decided I don't like the bullet. My initial plan is to pull the bullet with the rcbs tool I have and run the cases through the resizing die without the primer puncher so I can reuse the case. Any problems with that?
I'm a dude who likes long barrels!

Go for it. I have done it a few times. I have even pulled the bullet on cases and still had enough neck tension to just load them up, those instances the inside diameter of the neck was .002 less than the bullet which provided enough neck tension for no problems with the cases being loaded and fired.

I can tell the same story, just change the name, and location.

I personally would just drop a new bullet and go but if you resize I hope you mean take the actual decapping pin out not the entire decapping expander assembly.

If you dont leave the expander in there, it will reduce the case mouth too much.

You don't have to remove the decapping pin. Just move the decapping pin/expander ball up inside the die where it doesn't make contact with the primer. I do this all the time. You can easily adjust the location of where the decapping sits inside the die.
