I have found out that the Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die will resize all lead bullets to a common size. (Don't remember what)
So if you use a larger bullet due to an oversized barrel it will resize that bullet smaller.

But if you that advanced in your reloading I'd think you would figure that out pretty fast.

I use the Lee FCD on .357/38 spl, .45 acp, .45 Colt and 30-30 Win. These are super easy to use and "cheap insurance". I have never had an issue with them. One extra step is no big deal in my case. They just make my handloading much easier. Works like a charm.
