Yes, all standard dies are interchangable today with the exception of 1 Dillon press that I can`t recall the number of off the top my head at the moment.

Dillon Square Deal Press uses special dies but most other modern manufacturers all use the same sizes.

Here is one exception - although somewhat "exotic" for most of us: dies intended for "screw-in" (I forget the thread size?) presses will not fit arbor presses and vice versa...
