Correct. Just mind that firing only once a new case mae not gave you the right shoulder bump. With bolt action rifles the best way to go is removing the firing pin and ejector's spring from the bolt and resize the case until the bolt doesn't shut anymore: only closing it by gravity. for kipplaufbuchse I use candle's smoking the collet & shoukder and check for any contact mark on the soothy surface. Methods are not interchangeable cause soothing the case of a bolt action will show plentynif marks during extraction. I then check & note the correct head to shoulder web on a dedicated gun calepin. Sinclair and hornady are selling good tools that can be applied to any caliber for the job but it is possible to reply them using a non tapered pistol's or gun's shell who's mouth can slide over the collett untill the mid of the shoulder. My two cents.
