I kept on getting metal shavings when loading coated bullets. After purchasing and installing this expander (which was very easy to do) I have managed to eliminate metal and coating shavings as a result of insufficient flare. This expander does not just expand/flare the case mouth but also expands deeper into the shell allowing for coated bullets to be seated without forcing the base of the bullet to change as a result of the case not being big enough to accept lead bullets.
