not getting enough flare on my case mouths

i use lee speed dies to reload with and i've always had trouble getting the case open enough to easily start the bullets..... i really like everything else about these speed dies... i did see on the lee site where they has universal expanding dies. anyone have this die who could shed some light for me.. i'm thinkin maybe i should have one of those........

LIFE IS SHORT...........

I use the universal expanding die for some loads and calibers. When loading lead bullets, some of the packaged expanding dies don't expand the case mouths enough. The universal die works great.
