Normally, yes. However, some shell holders fit more than one kind of shell (e.g. .357 and .38). The case must be held very stable to prevent damage to the shell and to the die.

You need the correct shell plate for the caliber you want to load. It's an additional $20-30.

My 38 Spec. speed loaders fit fine in the HKS Basketweave Double holder. (Actually there is a little extra room, but fits nicely.)

Yes you can. The only RCBS shell holder that I have is a #6 and it works just fine. All of my other ones are Lee. Once you learn how to set it up, make some shells that you will use for gauges. That way the next time that you reload that caliber, the set up is quick and accurate. Properly used, this is an excellent and very accurate trimmer.

The #16 is all you need for the 9mm, I bought two of them as I have a hand press as well and I didn't want to have to remove it from the hand press and move it to my press when working on 9mm reloading.A good reference for shellholders can be found at: http://www.rcbs.com/downloads/trim_shell_holder_collet_ref_chart.pdf. Happy reloading!

Does anyone know what shell holder is used for the 223 brass? The press holder doesent fit.

Yes, it is currently listed as Lee Precision Carbide 4-Die Set Colt (Grey). The shell holder is a #11. As long as it does not have "ACP" in the name, it is for the .45 Colt.

If your shell holder is covering the screw on the rail, then yes. The rail utilizes the screw that is already there, you remove and re-install the factory screw is all so it needs to be accessible.

I don't think that the calibers are on the packaging. RCBS does have a chart on the web so you can look up the shell holder and collet sizes for your caliber. http://www.rcbs.com/downloads/trim_shell_holder_collet_ref_chart.pdf

Shell holder #7 fits both the 30-40 and the .303...Hope this helps. All that information is also found on the RCBS webpage if you ever need it again.

I would say no because different companies use different numbering systems and maybe even offsets for the thru holes. Lee has some excellent products including shell holders and carbide dies. I just matched everything to Lee products and could't be happier. But, I had no pre-owned shell-holders for the caliber I started reloading with the handpress. Hope this helps. I like the Lee products myself.

Hey Mr. Doe,The shell holders are for different calibers. This case holds 11 shell holders for the Lee press kit. However, you can reload about 100 different calibers from this kit. Good luck. I have one myself and love it.

I used the plastic rack out of a 38spl ammo box as my block. Grip retention pin can be used for 90% of the install, but I used an 1/8" brass punch for most of it so as to not mar the roll pins. Trigger pin is smaller than my smallest punch, so I used a 1.5mm allen key. Be mindful not to lose the take down lever retention spring. It's not mentioned in the video as was eaten by the black hole under my bench. It is on the front locking block above the trigger assembly.
