Yes, I am reluctant to undo the hoppers - unless absolutely necessary. So I have one, mated with its Lee Powder Through Expander die, for each caliber. Saves me time and trouble, too.

I guess the upside is that many thousands of readers over the next few years will stumble upon this thread, and your unfortunate journey will be a warning to others - think thrice before taking that path. It certainly hits the bullseye for me.
