    One of the reasons I use the Postell design for the heavies is to increase penetration with the momentum its carrying, but I go to a softer alloy to compensate for the lower MV so I still get solid...

    I've found Lil' Gun to be my preferred powder for heavier-projectile super sonic loads. I use H110 for my 110gr bullets, Lil' Gun for 125-160gr and 1680 or CFE BLK for heavy subs

    If you're just looking for a little bit of flare at the top, the Lee might work. If you're looking to seat a fatter bullet and not swage it down, look at the NOE expander.

    To answer your questions:
    1) yes, they put a slight bell on the case at the larger listed diameter
    2) yes, they would help you load .311 bullets into a 30-06 without a different expander ball
