Default RCBS 25001 Dies for 30 Cal Luger

The Dillon 550B is a progressive loader, 4 stations. Dillon does not make 30 Cal luger dies. I was told on this forum to get the RCBS 25001 2 Die set for the Dillon. I bought also a quik change kit from Dillon that comes with station 2 for the case bell with the powder funnel and powder holder and powder bar. You start with the RCBS Die 1 in station 1 to size the case and deprime and prime. Move to station 2 to bell the case and add the correct powder charge. Move to station 3 to add the second RCBS die to add the 90gr lead cast bullet with wax cannelure and seat the bullet.If crimped at the wax cannelure is way to long. I need 1.173 is what I am told from the Pro's here. I've readjusted and have come pretty close to the crimp being almost completely flat. No station 4 for crimping on the RCBS 2 die set for the 4 station 550B. That's my problem. I think I need to call RCBS and see if they sell just 1 die for crimping that I can add to station 4 and use 3 just for bullet seating. But the big question is has anyone got the 2 die RCBS set to work and how did you do and what bullet was used to get the cannelure and crimp correct. I am within specs, not to over, a little less in fact. Thanks for any input. Any Dillon or RCBS Pro's out there.................And if RCBS sells the 2 die set and is recommended here it must work somehow........
