The only ones that are interchangeable are the ones between the RCBS and Lyman luber/sizers. Star are totally different. The Lee push through type screw into your reloading press and are different then the other three.

The Star is one of the best luber/sizers, but more expensive. The dies are more expensive also. Some claim unless you are going to be doing a very large amount of sizing, the RCBS and Lyman is a better choice. You can change dies faster in the RCBS and Lyman also.

Redding/Saeco sizer/luber is different from any of the others.

i haven't used a star, but i have a lot of experience with the rcbs unit. when i discovered lee's tumble lube and push-through sizing, i retired the lubrisizer. dies cost less and are easily opened up for custom diameters. also, the process is less time consuming and bullet performance is good at velocities up to the 1800 fps i normally use.

wanna buy an rcbs lubrisizer and assorted dies? Smiler
