Neck Expanding for Cast Bullets
The M-die plugs furnished by Lyman are what comes in their dies i.e. too small for cast bullets. I know Buckshot and Lathsmith and they have made me custom equipment before. I mention the Lyman 310 expanders because they cost between $5 and $10 (including die and ring) on Ebay. A far less costly alternative to having custom stuff made. I also have a lathe and can make my own, but for the price of these things, it is not worth the time and effort to make my own.
Therefore, I posted the information, not because there are not alternatives, but because it is a cost effective approach to solving the problem and one most handloaders are not aware of.
