robncoloradoRCBS Press with Hornady Dies?
So i bought a 450 Nitro Express, it comes with Hornady dies that are still enroute to me. Does anyone know if they can be used with a RCBS Rockchucker 4 press? Kinda of an odd question, but all i’ve used are RCBS Dies sets. TIA

I've got Hornady dies for my 7mmWSM plus Lyman and RCBS dies for various other cartridges and they all fit in my Pacific press that takes standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies.

dpcdAll dies work on all presses; mostly. Don't worry. Especially a Rock Chucker.
As well as these I have; Lyman, Lee, Herters, Redding, Hornady, RCBS, CH$D, old ones with no name, and ones I make. All are 7/8ths X14 for a reason.

What? No Lachmiller, Pacific, Texan, or Ruhr-American?

cgbachI still have a couple sets of Lachmiller dies that belonged to my dad. And then there was Hollywood. I don't remember if they were 7/8 or something else.

jeffeosso7/8 thread dies will work -- the LnL bushing, if you buy that, i don't think work with anything else

AtkinsonLot of presses are too short for double rifle cases and 50 cal MG. RCBS A-2 will handle everything short of 20MM cannon cases!v
