Small Base Dies - Am I Right or Wrong?

[Bluegunner]

Possed the following on another forum and got no response, I hope someone here can confirm or correct me.

I am going to start reloading for my Browning Bar II 25-06, and the question of small base dies has come up. I have been advised to not worry about them unless I start having a problem. But I have come up with a question that I would like a correction or conformation on if I need to go to SBD's. Background Info: RCBS has SBD's for the 25-06 for about $80.00. 30-06 SBD's are available for about $25.00. Question: Would running the case through the normal 25-06 die (I already have normal 25-06 dies)and then through the 30-06 SBD with center removed work? I have study the case dimension in the reloaders manual and it apprear to me that it should plus I would also now have a set of 30-06 dies.
