Lee dies are about 1/2 the price. I used RCBS on my 480s 10 years ago. When I bought them this time I went LEE they were not available 10 years ago. Lee comes with the shell holder.
If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.
I know that Lee gets a bad rap from many however all of my Lee dies have been both in spec and capable of churning out better ammunition than I am capable of differentiating.

Anytime I buy a set of dies, I always buy the least expensive carbide dies I can find - and that usually means Lee. All the animals in my freezer would agree, they work fine...
I have a mix of RCBS, Hornady, and Lee and all work well. I always use Lee crimp dies for my auto and in my revolvers when I use bullets with no crimp groove.
