I’ve used the same one on my LNL. They do make a specific one for 45 to accommodate the different bevel in the extractor groove, but the 30-06 will work.

On the Dillon site they have a file that you can download that tells you which shell plates and buttons fit what caliber... You should get it..... Alot of the time things are interchangeable , you just need one thing in combination with what you have to load another caliber.... Plus it tells you what each caliber conversion fits , they normally have multiple applications....you can save alot of money by knowing this information... The file list shell plates , location buttons and powder funnels and what they all fit.

450 and 550 caliber conversion chart...

The only difference is the part that goes into the power measure die. (308, 30-06, 243, ect) (Edit) For the 550..
