Do i need a different set of dies for loading my 45-70 cast bullets? Right now i have a RCBS set.

Probably not for 45-70. With 45 Colt I found my regular RCBS set tended to scrape some lead off the sides of the bullets when seating. The Cowboy dies are set up a little looser in some respects to allow for the softer non jacketd bullets.

If you have the two die set you do need a neck expander die. The Lyman M die is the preferred one.
