I tumble the straight wall cases which are going through carbide dies before sizing. I tumble the bottleneck cases that require lube for sizing after sizing. I've never had tumbling do a good enough job of cleaning primer pockets for that to matter, I always give each case two twist of a pocket brush after they come out of the FL die.

I might change process if I were using a progressive but after upwards of 100K rounds loaded on a single stage, I'm comfortable my current process works for me.
