Hornady Die question

Can I remove the expander on a Hornady Match Grade FL die and just use a decaper?
I have an EC expander mandrel and die.

Yes. I take the expander ball and pin out of all my dies. Keeps me from getting stuck cases and more consistent neck tension.

Can I use it with no decapper?

Yes.

You will need to use a depriming die to get rid of the primer , as well as a neck mandrel die to set the neck tension appropriately.
