There are a bunch of research papers for flare bevel weld effective throat thicknesses - try this one:

mgt89,
I dont know where in the world you are or what code you are using but from the AWS D1.1, 2010:
Table 2.1, Effective Size of Flare Groove Welds Filled Flush
Flare bevel groove welds made using SAW, SMAW or FCAW-S, Teff = 5/16 x radius*
Flare bevel groove welds made using GMAW, FCAW-G, Teff = 5/8 x radius*
*Radius of the flared bevel, in your case the corner of your HSS
