Don H,
My mistake when I replied, but IMO for such large cases any Lee press is not suitable. I use Lee preses for handguns, and for a while I used one for rifle.
(30-06) so I am familiar with them.
I would still choose a better press for the 50.

You simply don't know what you're talking about. The classic cast is bigger, stronger than a RCBS rockchucker. It has more leverage and stronger linkage than most.

Imperial Sizing Wax is a great lube for cases fired in a rifle with a tight chamber, but when you really start to work the brass you need a real lube (don't get me wrong, I use Imperial Sizing Wax too). I used to use lanolin, other friends of mine used motor oil, most used one of the commercial "oily" case lubes like RCBS.

As soon as I started reading this, I thought the same thing. Everybody loves imperial, but it's too thin a wax to do real high pressure sizing. I used to use RCBS spray lube. It's the slickest of all I have tried. It's also expensive and comes in little bottles with a sprayer that sometimes don't work. I tried Frankford arsenal spray lube, I can't tell the difference between it and the RCBS spray.

I think it's all in the lube. Your RCBS lube may work, The Lee stuff, I tossed it when I got some in a kit once.
