Looking to get the Dillon carbide 357 sig die set. The only problem is that I use a Lee Classic Turret press.
Can I use the dies & still use my Pro Auto disk powder measure (thru the die)?
The 4th station would be for a Lee FCD.
What else would be needed from Dillon? Anyone provide a parts list & photos perhaps?

Dies have the same threads so it should work fine. $130 for a die set is alot of money. I have been looking at the lee dies and the crimp die, $40.
Lifes journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body,
But to skid in sideways totally used up, and worn out shouting "Man what a ride"!

Lee powder measure won't interface with Dillon die.

You ought to be able to use a Dillon powder measure, but it would be cheaper, and easier to go with Lee dies.

Thanks,
That is what I needed to know.
So I guess I will be going with the 40S&W sizer/decapper & Lee 3 pc steel 357 sig set up.
