Can RCBS dies/shellholders be used in LEE presses?

I got a gun that Lee doesn't make a die for. RCBS does. Can I use the die/shellholder from RCBS in my LEE press?

    Most dies are a standard size thread and are interchangeable with each other. I use lee and rcbs dies in my Rock Chucker, so I don't see why you couldn't. The shell holders are also interchangeable.

    So we're saying that most (if all) dies will interchange in Lee/RCBS/Hornady/Lyman presses?I didn't know that (only been doing this for a couple of years as a hobby).Well, I think that I may save a buck here and there on some boolets I want to try to reload for.Nothing ventured, nothing gained?Thanks.
