Seating dies

Just a quick question, Getting ready to load up some .308 Win. I bought the 2 die RCBS dies set with full length and seating/crimping die.
I know later down the road I will pickup a neck die.
But I want to seat only with no crimp, going into a bolt action only rifle.
Will the RCBS seat/crimp die work?
If not, then I will just return the set and pickup each die on it's own.

Thank you for your help

Yes your seater die will work with out crimping. Put a case in the press and run the ram up to its top. then when you screw the die into the press, just back it off one to two turns from touching your brass.
