Will either the Redding taper crimp die for the 45 GAP or the 45 Win Magnum work with the 45 ACP?

.45 GAP case is shorter and can be set out to work for .45 ACP. This is like the .38 Special and .357 Magnum or the .44 Special and .44 Magnum scenario. You will adjust the die as needed.
The .45 Winchester Magnum case is longer and this taper die may or may not work.
This all depends on the stack-up of tolerances, I use my .45 Colt taper die for .45-70. It is set way out.
