NOE makes a dandy set of tools for pre-flaring Hornady gas check skirts to fit on Lyman check shanks. They are meant to be used in a reloading press in the ram's shellholder slot with a screw-in die that functions as a "stop" and anvil. I just bought a spare press ram and C-clip, and use the ram and flaring tool on a bench top. Not expensive.
I really should have a copy of the Lyman #311359, given all of the 30 caliber rifles and pistols I have on hand here--to include a 30 Carbine Blackhawk. If one block's cavities cast at ~.311", and another block's cavities poured in the .315" Area Code--life would be GRAND. I have managed in good order with one 2-banger Lyman #311316 that drops at .314" for gas check venues and my own design "MMSFTT" for plain-base usage that falls at .315"+. My copy of the Lee Soup Can (C309-113FN) just makes .311", so it works in the 30s but is too skinny for the 31s and 32s.
