New to the 30BR...

Ok... This is my first wildcat. I think I have nearly all the tools assembled to turn 6brs into 30brs. I am still shakey on two items (i think). Resizing the necks from 6 to 30. I see on the 30br section that Smokin Joe uses an expander mandrel. I have one in my neck turning kit. How does one expand the neck using the mandrel. The other item is bullet setting. I picked up a Wilson Seater Die without knowing it does not go into my Rock Chucker. The instructions say to place a charged cartridge and bullet in the die and then tap the plunger in to seat the bullet with a rubber hammer. Is there a better way? Anyone have a book to recommend with pictures on the 30BR reloading process they could recommend?

Which expander die should I use?
 
The mandrel is intended to be used with a Sinclair expander die body, and the Wilson seater is intended to be used with an arbor press.
