stev,
reload with the LnL unit and did use the powder thru expander in 9mm but was not entirely happy with its performance so I found and aftermarket PTE that really works much better. Sorry I don't remember where I got it or who makes it but I think I could go thru my invoices in the shop and dig it out.
The problem I found with Hornady's unit is inconsistent flaring of the case mouths-
Probably ran over 2000 reloads with the new PTE and quite satisfied.
It allows me to use a Powder Cop in that station and I appreciate the added safety check

If you are interested in the maker of the new unit, get back to me either here or send a pm and I will give a look.
