Do thes work in a RCBS brand press ? are they as good as rcbs

Yes they will work in a RCBS Press and Lee dies are carbide and one does not need to lubricate the cases before starting the process. They are great quality dies.
1061225
yes they will work just fine in a RCBS reloading press, very good quality dies
1061226
Yes they will work in a Rcbs press. As for being as good that's a very opinnionated question. Yes they are good dyes. They are not as smooth after belling case will feel bump that's how it works though if pouring powder through die completely normal people should not get mad at die that's the way it works. If using cast bullets I also use Lyman M die

I have been told the depth of Lee and RCBS dies will not work with the others press but have never tried them. I have loaded many thousands of handgun rounds with a RCBS setup in the past and so far the Lee has had comparable quality results. Don't care much for the quality of the Lee Powder Scales though.

They work in my single stage RCBS just fine. I have both RCBS and Lee dies and I think they are just as good expect for the lock rings which you will have to reset when ever you change the die. If you keep a pilot case in the die box it's no big deal.

Yes it will. If you check with RCBS directly you will find that they only list one primer arm for all their single stage presses. I installed this replacement in an old RC II.

YES< you may use most ALL standard dies. The RCBS is made with the 7/8 standard threads!

I don't think the press would work without using one of the design plates. Without one of them, I think you'd just be forcing out a huge cylinder of dough, if anything. I've seen other presses that have 'plain' plates. As far as making things easier, that's not what I think of when I use this press. I've been mostly underwhelmed with its usefulness and performance. My old Mirro and newer Marcato/Atlas are far superior to this piece of flimsy, plastic junk from OXO.

the ansewer to your question is yes. RCBS is the type of loading press I use with my Lee dies.

The priming tool has adaptors for large and small primers and they each have an area that funnels into the base of the shell holder. With RCBS shell holders I've had to drill part of that base area on a couple of them in that center area to enlarge the width of the hole. Fairly simple. I do have some lyman holders but havent used one yet so I dont know if they will fit easily over that funnel, but the base part should be the same as RCBS. It has worked with a Lee holder I've used so I'm thinking all of them are basically the same. The Lyman holders fit easily into my RCBS press.

I can't say about the hand primer but I use RCBS dies with out any problems next time I will get a RCBS Pressbut I would feel sure to use them Dies are dies presses are the same

I haven't gotten around to using these Lee Carbide Dies but I have used Lee dies in the past with an RCBS Press and Dillon.I would assume they still work with no problem. Dies are pretty much standard size as far as I know. Some are taller than others but they fit the same hole in the press.

IT fit my RCBS just fine, However I went to a reloading store and matched it up then ordered it online. I saved a little money but if it happens again I will just purchase it locally. Shipping was a little slow.

The RCBS is not a progressive loader as is the Hornady so reloading should be faster and easier. I would read the reviews on Amazon for both before making a decision.

The only press I know of which uses non-standard metallic cartridge dies is the Dillon Square Deal progressive pistol press. Every other press (whether single-stage, turret, or progressive) I have ever seen uses the same standard die thread (7/8-14). So these dies will work on anything but a Dillon Square Deal B press.

Yep. I've used these on a dinosaur Epsom and a new cheapie ($30) cannon. They both printed perfectly.

I have no idea. The press I have is very much in tact and I have used it quite a bit. I would go back to the company who sold it through Amazon and depending on when you purchased it, maybe they would consider a replacement or repair. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Yes. The RCBS Combo works well on all powders I tried especially powders like 4831 that are difficult to use with a regular power measure. The unit is fast and convenient and saves a lot of time. I would never buy another one as they break down quickly and RCBS does not repair them. If they are out of warranty you have to send them back and get a new one for $200. This is too expensive for the convenience.

I believe so, but not sure how long. I do know though that RCBS has excellent customer service when it comes to their products, even after the warranty. It's definitely worth the money difference compared to other manufacturers.

Smaller cases like the 9mm are easy-peasy with this press. Once you develop a rythym and understand that this press is like any single stage press,(you can only do one operation at a time, so it is wise to load in a 'batch'fashion), it is really not any slower than a single stage press ecept the priming operation must be done seperately. I recommend the RCBS Universal Priming tool for this! And this is a heelacious price! I paid over 45$ from Midway last year and had to wait a couple months to boot.

I use the standard OTC press that pretty much all other presses are modeled after. I think it would work.
