3 firings is pretty common before fl and bumping. What chad is referring to is just nk sizing and doing that at some point you will have chambering issues.

I have measured virgin 7 Rem Mag brass to the shoulder. Fired it, and measured again. It grows .014" from virgin to once fired. The next time it is sized, the shoulders get pushed back .002", and that is the way it is always sized from then on. This is what I do with every rifle I have. They always feed, they always eject, and they shoot very small. Consistency and reliablity is what I like. Brass of various lengths case head to shoulder, can yield a wider ES. Not always, but some of the cartridges I've loaded for shot more consistenly on partial FL sized brass, since they are all the same measurement. Another reason I like second loaded brass the best. It's two thousandths shorter than my chamber, it will yield more velocity than virgin brass, and it hasn't work hardened enough to make me feel like it needs annealing yet.
I'm almost regretting buying 500 pieces of 6.5 Creedmoor, because I am still shooting on virgin brass.
