223 RCBS dies in a Dillon 550 b press ?

[Arley]

How do I setup the RCBS dies in my Dillon 550 press . Two die FL .223 RCBS dies .

Setup on the decap resizing die ?

Setup on the seating and crimp die ?

I have always used Dillon dies so I am not familiar with the RCBS system .

Any help will be greatly valued .

I don't load rifle, so can't advise

Cannot imagine it would be too different from setting it up on a RCBS progressive or a sigle stage.

May need to sacrifice a few pieces of brass to get it set up correctly: Run a fired case up through the die, measure and adjust accordingly.

I don't load any rifle either, pistol only. What I know is all dies fit into all machines except for the Square B........

I only have an RCBS Rock Chucker so I know nothing of setting up Big Blue or progressive presses.

The RCBS die setup on the 550 is basically the same as it is on the Rock Chucker and other presses. While I screw the die into the Rock Chucker roughly 1/4 turn past shell plate contact, with the 550, I set it to just touch the shell plate.

Here's a link to the instructions in case you don't have them:
