I use both rond and hex dies in an ordinary (round or hex) handle, 
and use both non-adjustable and adjustable. Many of my dies have a 
screw adjustment.  dies are very common in both adjustable and non 
adjustable.  same supplier, just a little more money.

These would NOT be the real cheap ones you get on sale for one dollar.
