Here is my problem. I have a Ruger #1 45-70 and a Marlin 1895SS 45-70 and I want to reload for them.

I have a Dillon 550 press but Dillon does NOT offer the 45-70 dies. They do however offer the Redding 45-70 three(3) die set.

Is redding a good die set for the 45-70?

Will RCBS dies work on the Dillon?

Does Hornady make a 45-70 die set that will fit the Dillon?

What is the BEST die set money can buy?

thanks
