Background
I bought a Dillon 550C for reloading 40 S&W to make subsonic ammunition for my Keltec Sub 2000 (Sub 2K) with a Suppressor. Turns out, I cannot find a lighter recoil spring to tune the rifle for reliability feeding.
I single stage my 454 Casull, 460 Magnum, and 500 Magnum on a Hornady Lock N Load. So I have dies from RCBS or Lee for them.
Questions
Therefore, I’d like to use my Dillon to reload 454 Casull with Lee or RCBS dies. Will this work, assuming I get the shell plate from Dillon? How do you work the powder measure for station 2 using other branded dies? Or will I just use a manual powder measure for station 2 to work? Or is there an adapter to make the 3rd party dies work?
Thank you in advance.
