Quick Reference Table

IMPORTANT: RCBS Shell Holder numbers do not correspond to those of other manufacturers. When two Shell Holder are listed, the most popular is shown first. It may be necessary to use the alternate, depending on the manufacturer and/or lot of cases being used.

The numerals in ( ) in the table indicate the following: (2) cases are usually Berdan primed. Depriming and priming must be done by hand. If cases were formed from cases having boxer-type primers, use the appropriate Shell Holder for that caliber. (4) not available. (5) Auto 4X4 Shell Plate not available. (6) Auto 4X4 and Five-Station Shell Plates not available.
