Do you see any benefit when turning the necks, or is this a requirement for your rifle?

I just do it so that I know that the case neck thickness is consistent from case to case. It's just me. I only have to do it once and just for my bolt actions. I have no documented proof that it helps me or hurts me on targets and so far I haven't been getting splits. I personally don't think it is a waste of time but some might and that's ok. I have the time so I do it.

My Howa chamber is a standard factory chamber and nothing is tight or oversized. Just plain ole plain.

Edit: One thing that I might add is I watched a video with Jack Neary previously and he said that the consistent neck wall thickness does allow for the neck to expand the same on all sides and release the bullet more consistent on all sides. Said it didn't have any thing to do with how tight the chamber neck was but how consistent the neck separates from the bullet evenly. That stuck with me as he said that it did make a provable difference for him. Now I know that I don't have the precision gun with the tight chamber necks or experience of him but I figured that it certainly can't hurt me.
