On another forum recently, there were a couple threads re: a new powder thru funnel for loading 32 long and 32 ACP. Rather than just flaring the top of the brass for balancing the bullet, it is a two step process which creates a pocket for the bullets to sit in so that there is no issues with the bullet tilting sideways when loading.

I am using these for both 32 long and 32 ACP and have found them to be vastly superior to the Dillon die. Using different available size inserts, I use these for loading numerous size bullets, including standard Speer Plinker (.3125) and bumped Speers (.3145) in 32 Long, and .308, .312 and .314 T&B lead bullets, and .311 Hornady JHP in 32 ACP. Really an excellent product.

Full disclosure,I was involved with some of the initial testing, but have no financial interest of any sort. I suspect many on this forum might already be aware of this, but thought I would post a reference here as well.

The initial testing, etc can be found here.

Same as the Lyman M-die, isn't it? The plug "sizes" the brass where the bullet sits to just under bullet diameter, and flares the mouth so you don't shave the bullet bearing surface. Only difference being it's also a funnel.
