I have a Lee Breech lock press. Full lenght Dies for a 7mm Rem mag. The gun is a Remington 700. If i bought a neck sizing die can i still use the factory crimp die on them?
 
Short answer = Yes.

Long answer = What in the world for?

It isn't needed. Case neck tension will hold the bullet firmly in place until you get into elephant rifle recoil.

If you are going to purchase a Neck die you might as well get the best, and also the cheapest. Get yourself a Lee Collet die, simple the best there is for neck sizing.

I use Lee crimp dies (and like them) but I much prefer Redding neck sizing dies ... the best available in my opinion.
