right way to neck up 308 brass to 358?

Want to make some 358 cases from some new 308 brass that I've had a while. Never tried it before. Is it better to aneal the neck area first? Or just lube inside of neck and run em through the sizing decaping die? Any tips will be appreciated.

The forend is a ranger type hardwood that probably came from Win-it fits nicely. It has a gold trigg...

Marlin 336 in 356 win ?

Is there a diference in the strength in the various 336 chamberings? Have there been changes over the years to accomadate hotter cartridges like the 356?
