The Hornady Shell Holder #6 provides precise case holding for multiple rifle and pistol calibers during the reloading process. This universal shell holder accommodates popular cartridges including .243 Winchester, .308 Winchester, 7mm-08 Remington, and .338 Federal, making it an essential component for reloaders working with medium to large rifle cases.

What Makes This Different

Constructed from heat-treated steel with a durable silver finish, this shell holder delivers consistent case alignment and secure grip throughout the resizing and priming operations. The precision-machined interior dimensions ensure proper headspace control while preventing case damage during extraction. Unlike generic alternatives, Hornady's manufacturing tolerances maintain dimensional consistency across production runs, resulting in uniform case preparation.

Reloaders appreciate the consistent case extraction this shell holder provides across different powder charges and bullet weights.

Competition shooters rely on this consistency for match-grade ammunition preparation, while hunters value the reliability for field loads.
