reloading 30-30 on a lee pro 1000??????

does anyone who uses a lee pro 1000 reload 30-30 shells???? from what i've read this isnt possible, yet i'm looking at a 3 die set on a turret plate for a 1000 that the seller claims he has been using on a pro1000 to reload 30-30's

i'd like to buy it if it actually will work????

I think the problem will be in the rotation of the turret. There is not enough clearance in the press to allow the turret to auto rotate when using most rifle cartridges. I use one of the older Lee three hole turret presses and that is the case with it. You can load rifle cartridges on the press but you have to disengage the auto rotate feature and rotate the turret by hand. That is not an issue with me as I only load for my own use (low volume). I load 30-30, 243, and 45-70 with mine.
