Reloading the .455 Webley, the 45 acp and 45 Long Colt with just the Long Colt dies

[Outpost75]

I reload 455 webley, 45 Schofield, 45acp and 45 autorim using Lee 455 Webley dies. I've read that the Lee 455 Webley die set is just 45 colt sizer die, and 45acp expander and seating dies.

This is correct. I do the same thing, including loading .45 Cowboy Special, which is a .45 ACP case having a .45 Schofield rim.
Just buy the Lee Webley die set and a bunch of different shell holders. Works for me!

You'll have problems crimping the 45acp maybe because of the whole taper crimp roll crimp thing. Although I have a set of hornaday 45acp dies that won't taper crimp worth a hoot either and use an old herters seater die that does great for just the crimp.

This works OK and I have recommended this to several.people. However, I still use the old RCBS .45 AR roll crimp seater for the revolvers and the Redding taper crimp.in the M1911s.
