OK, I give up---what are 'm' dies and used for what?
I posted this in two other M-die threads, yesterday: http://www.lasc.us/Brennan_LymanMDies.htm

More of the same, if it helps...
See this post for a detailed explanation of the M-Die. You'll understand why it doesn't just "bell" the case mouth. It expands the neck to the correct diameter for cast boolits and it has a short section that expands the mouth to a thousandth or so over boolit diameter to aid starting the boolit correctly and coaxially with the case mouth. No "belling" required. Much more gentle on the brass than a tool that bells the mouth like a trumpet.
