Lee 30-06 dies

I'm thinking of using these dies along with the factory crimp die to load for my M1. Can they really be used without any lube? Anybody have any experience with these dies?
Thanks,
Gary

Lee Collett Dies are great. I use several sets of Lee dies for both handgun and rifle cartridges, and am perfectly happy with them. The only Collet Sizer I have is for the .223 Rem, but it works as advertised.
Get the full length conventional die for your M1. They work fine.
now for a bolt gun, the Lee Collet dies are hard to beat. I just shot a sub 1" group at 300 yards with my BVSS Savage using Lapua brass, Berger bullets, and H335 powder last week... loaded on Lee dies. If I were truly shooting benchrest at 1000 yards I'd go with Forrester or Wilson or RCBS precision dies, but for anything short of, Lee is just peachy.
