Haven't seen RCBS checks, just Lyman and Hornady. If you want the good crimp on ones, go to Hornady. Although you may pay for the brand name, they're supposedly the best on the market, with the exception of the custom, extra thick, Gator Checks.

Blammer, the vendor sponsor sells them. Might check the Group Buy Log in at the bottom of the page, then go to DJ's Corner. He sells Gators and some Lyman thin checks.

Right now, he has everything in stock!

I have an old box of RCBS checks for 45 rifle.
they seem to crimp on like Hornady.

I read reciently that Hornady now makes Lyman, so the new production should be the same.

When i first started casting i used RCBS GC

When i ran out i took one of the RCBS GC to the store and compared them to the Hornady GC with a digital vernier they were the same as close as i could tell

heigth/ thickness and diameter the same
