I have 2 .45 autos in addition to my Model 625.
What I did was segregate out all my Winchester cases (they work well in moon clips) for revolver use.
As I use a Lee Classic Turret press, I got a Lee 3-die .45 ACP die set that resides in its own turret so I can leave my revolver setup on it. It does a roll crimp, which is fine for the cast bullets I use in the revolver.
The auto rounds are all jacketed and taper crimped in the 4-die set with the FCD.
