RCBS dies work in a LEE press (single stage)

[mgkdrgn]

Question,

Thinking of getting an M1 Carbine and would like to reload for it. Have 2 LEE single stage presses that I use for 9mm and 45 Colt.

LEE doesn't seem to have much in terms of die sets for 30 Cal carbine, but I see several RCBS die sets on Ebay.

Will those dies thread into a LEE press?

Yes.
7/8" x 14 TPI dies are universally used across the board.

There is also this:

Thanks for the reply.

I'd love to order from Midway ... but their web site has pissed me off and wasted my time for the last time. If/When they ever bother to fix it, I'll go back. Why waste 30 minutes there so it can dump me at the last step of the order process when I can actually ORDER something someplace else in 5 minutes?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Their site is very slow and unresponsive

Yep. There is a thread on that right now.

I was only making the point that Lee makes .30 Carbine carbide dies if that is what you would rather have.
You don't have to buy them from Midway.
I just used that link to show them.

I did end up buying Lee dies ...

From Ebay.

As I stated on the other thread, and told the CEO of Midway, I'm not going back there until they have an ordering system I can actually place an order with.
