Did you make that marten? If so, nice machine work! You'll find that, like the Lee, you'll need another diameter due to the short/wide pistol cases. Frankly I think yours is better than the Lee with its two interchangeable/swappable/gotta follow the instructions to set up arrangement.

Only need it for rifle stuff.
This is what I wanted to achieve for testing.
Unfortunately the flare is barely perceptible in the photo but you can certainly 'feel' the bullet fit!

Guess that is one of the reasons why I could not live in the UK. Could not afford it. Nice job on the expander.
