Do to the type of powder measure I use on the Loadmaster to charge my 40 S&W cases I have to flare the case before charging with powder.

I can make the "Lee Powder Through Expanding Die" easily adjustable by doing the following.
Remove the funnel adapter, screw in the die to shell plate contact in station 2.
Replace the funnel adapter with a the adjuster from a bullet seating die.

Now for more or less flare the adjusting stem can be screwed in or out.

Does the rubber o ring hold it tight enough that it doesn't walk out?

Did 1,000 40 S&W a couple weeks ago without having to adjust it. If it did change it wasn't noticeable.
