OK folks, I know that Lyman has the M die and there are some others that are similar. I think Redding is one, but are there others that make something similar to expand brass without excessive belling for cast bullet use?
I load lead cast in 9MM, 38 Spcl/357 Mag, 45 ACP, 45 Colt, 40 S&W, and 30-30 Win. I will start loading 223 Rem, 308 Win, 300 Blackout, and some other 30 cals with lead as well.
In 45 ACP, I'm still getting the shaving of a lead sliver even though I'm belling the mouth a lot! In 9MM it's not as bad, but I want to have a decent flare for the lead bullets without over doing it.
I'm looking at what other options to the Lyman there are out there. I'd rather buy other brands, if I can. And, if anyone has experience with the NOE expanders with the Lee die let me know how that works please.
