Lee Dies in RCBS Press

[Zeb]

Will Lee dies work in an RCBS Rock Chucker ?

TIA.

Yes. I have Lee 9mm dies and they work in my RCBS Rockchucker.

 

[Potashminer]

Yep - I do that often. So do Lyman dies, Bonanza dies, Hornady dies - and, of course RCBS dies - anything with the 7/8" x 14 thread - if your Rock Chucker press has the insert (bushing) to go from 1 1/4"-12 TPI to 7/8"-14 TPI size.

ALL dies are interchangeable. They all use the same thread pattern. You can use whatever in whatever. Same goes for case holders.

Not all dies are interchangeable, Dillion makes some that only work on their square deal B press

Both the shell holders and the 7/8" x14tpi were Pacific innovations.

The exception to the rule. Everything else is interchangeable.

I'm going by my memory which at my age isn't what it once was . Pacific gets it name from starting in California , across the street from the University in Berkley. It was bought by a hardware store chain in the mid-west. Then Hornady bought it.

Oh,BTW, Lee dies are inexpensive, one of the ways they save money is in the length of their dies. They are short.

Hollywood and Behr fit too and a few other weird dies I have.

Another exception that you can run into in old collections are the Lyman 310 dies. They are obviously much smaller.

Small and Large Handles and a few old presses use dies threaded 0.609" x 30 (5/8x30). Large special dies used 11/16x30 thread.

Yes, and so will the shell holder.

The setup is a little different. I'm the guy that actually reads the instructions.
Lee presses are positive stop while RCBS cam over.
The included instructions explain this.

Lee dies are my favorite. Rockchucker my favorite as well. Go together like peas and carrots
