Great product
I love the Lee universal shell holders, and I have them in several different calibers. They fit perfectly in my 2 RCBS single.stage presses, as well as my Lyman E-zee prime priming tool. When I buy these shell holders I usually by 2 in a given caliber. That way I can put the resizing die in one press, and the expander die in the other, and after I drop my powder, I put the seating die in one press and the factory crimp die in the other. This greatly speeds up my reloading process. I would highly recommend the Lee universal shell holders because they have been compatible with everything I've put them in, and they are less expensive than other brands.
Works Great
I needed a spare shell holder. Lee reloading products are great.
Lee Universal Shellholder, #4
Does what it's suppose to do , holds shell case
Modified for Sinclair priming tool
The Sinclair priming tool is in my opinion the best for accurately and consistently seating primers. However, for .338 LM (based on .416 Rigby) there are not a lot of options. The proper Sinclair holder is backordered from Brownell. However the Sinclair tool accepts Lee hand priming tool shell holders and the #8 Lee shell holder fits and can be installed into the Sinclair tool by facing off the lug that holds the shell holder into a press thus converting it to a Lee priming-type shell holder, in other words just make this holder flat across the bottom as are the Lee priming shell holders. I did this easily in the lathe, a 5 minute job. You may also need to modify the primer cup in the Sinclair tool to allow a case to fit smoothly. I took .025 off the lip of the cup to match the shell holder floor. The Sinclair plunger is adjustable (see their directions) and it sets primers just below flush when is set to .010 above the lip of the primer cup.
Shell Holders are NOT universal
I like Brownells and this isn't a shot at them per se. However I was informed after the fact my Hornady that Lee shell holders do not work with Hornady dies.
Now I have to try to get my money back and find the right Hornady shell holder... and possible pay to replace a spindle
Would you recommend this?
Yes, I would recommend to a friend
