You will have no trouble. There is really only one additional step that requires another die, that of flaring the case mouth. Make sure you get a carbide sizing die so you don't have to lube cases. That in and of itself is a very nice departure from bottle necked cases. Other than those two things, you are already doing everything else you need to do when you reload your bottle necked stuff.

On another note, I have to admit that pounding away with a couple of .44 mag revolvers today was not a whole lot of fun. I've gotten soft in my old age, and rheumatoid arthritis is taking its toll on my hands. I put maybe 4-5 cylinders through each, just to verify zero with the new powder, and called it a day. For the life of me, I don't know how I used to shoot so much of this stuff. Give me my standard .45 Colt, .38 Special, and the like any day. Unless I'm actually hunting, or something is hunting me.
