Most of my cases get partial sizing. In other words, a FL die, just not necessarily screwed in all the way. I usually like a .003" shoulder bump on most "normal" rifles, though a few "accuracy is the only goal" rifles only get a .002" bump.
There is one rifle however, that always gets complete full-length sizing. The chamber is slightly crooked. However, as long as the brass is FL-sized every time, it loads easily and is one of my better shooting rifles.
