Now that the bullets are pulled do I need to resize the cases or just put the powder back in?
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger! There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

I was working up loads for a 22-250 a few weeks ago and the top levels I had loaded would have been too hot. I pulled them, reweighed the powder charges and seated the original bullets with no other prep. With two bullets and seven different charge weights, four shot groups went from .35" to .85". Only three groups were more than .65".

I usually size the necks to restore original neck tension.

I've done both (resize and not) and can't tell any difference.
