Is this a one-time or infrequent thing, or do you need to buy one for future use?

Depending on diameter you are wanting to size to and whether or not you need them lubed you can purchase a Lee push through sizer for the diameter you want. They are inexpensive and are used with a single stage press. These work well but you would need to either tumble lube or powder coat.

I saw the Lee sizer online yesterday that is the route I'm going. Thanks,

That's a very good solution. I dunno why I didn't think of it.
I did the tumble lube thing when I used that, and I did not like the lube all over the exposed portion of the bullet when loading was finished, so I would use a rag wetted with acetone or lacquer thinner and clean them up. When my handgun loading was a low-volume operation it was not a bad way to clean things up. Powder coating would make that final cleanup unnecessary and would be another very good idea should you decide to opt out of tumble lubing.

All the bullets I'm resizing are powder coated, so no messy lube to deal with.
