Is it possable to use different brand dies in say a Lee press or other brand press? Thanks

    As long as your press and dies are a 7/8-14 thread (that's what the majority are) than sure, you can use a die set made by another manfacture.
    Some of the older dies, for things like the Lyman "tong" tools, are different and one of the Dillon presses is different, but since the 1950's most manfactures have followed a standard of interchangability on their presses and dies.

    On my RCBS press, I jump between Hornady, Lee and RCBS dies and have run a couple of other brands on occasion.
