Lee 50 BMG dies in a Redding Ultramag???

[hoz53]

i am just wondering if anybody uses Lee 50 BMG dies in an ultramag to assemble standard
50 BMG loads and how it works out. Thanks

Is it even big enough? I have one and it seems its just about the exact size it needs to be for ultramags

Well a 50 BMG brass fits in the load window easy. I’m getting some lee dies (I don’t have any other lee dies) to try it. Looks like I may have to find a shell holder yet. Thanks

Hello, I did about 4-5 years 10 years ago of 50BMG shooting an reloading. I bought a custom target 50 an used custom dies made by a tool an die maker, not commercial. Had no problems working mil brass or commercial. Used the RCBS Ammo Master which still have. Been out of the game awhile but from the feed back RCBS dies don't seem to be the best choice. Good source of information was the 50 Caliber Shooter Association, FCSA.org.
