25-20 ss

I have been using 25-20 winchester dies to neck size for my 25 -20 ss. How far down the neck do I need to size,all the 
way or just as far as the  bullet gets seated?                              The neck in the chamber seems to be over size so I dont want to over work the brass.

i have been breach seating in my rifle, but C&H has dies in stock. In the past i have messed around using dies that are for other calibers. Even though i am a cheap scape i much prefer using the correct tool for the job. 
Forget to mention even though i breach seat i bought dies because i plan on using some fixed ammo at some point down the road;

I use 25-20 WCF dies with a 223 shellholder for sizing the neck and seating the bullet. Have had no need for full length resizing.
