45 gap die set

[ELFEGO BACA]

I have a 45 GAP pistol on order.

Will my 45ACP die set work with the 45 GAP?

My only thought is that the seating die may be too long.

ACP die set works just fine. I used my Hornady ACP die set until I saw the Lee set on sale at Midway. I picked up a set for a GAP dedicated toolhead. Works fine.

My Lee set works for both...

I use an RCBS set and it works like a champ.

Thanks for the advice.

perhaps the only issue may be in the crimp die ? it may or may not put the correct crimp on the mouth of the case??????

That can be a problem if the die does not have enough thread. The Lee crimper was down to the last few threads on the 550b toolhead. The Hornady had a longer thread lenght on the die. Both work fine.
