    NO. I have an RCBS 2 cav mold that my Saeco mold handles fit. NOW, the question is, (and I don't remember the answer...) did I need to take a file to my Saeco handles to make them fit that mold? I think I did, but I'm not sure. In any case, I KNOW they fit on my RCBS mold just fine, and if I had to modify them at all, it was with a file, nothing more, because I'm not a machinist, I just make stuff work. I may have had to file the inside dimension to line the hole us as well as thinning the handles to make them fit. YMMV

    My Saeco handles will not fit a Lyman mold as the center of the handle slot is too thick on the lyman mold. And the Saeco handles will have to be thinned to fit in an RCBS mold. So no, not without modification.
