I run them through a decapping die first, then tumble, then size. It adds an extra step, but since it's not prone to errors (like overcharging etc.), I use a hand press to decap while watching TV and sometimes even while reading the board.

The sole function of the decapping rod in the sizing die is to knock out the media.
