The Hornady Shell Holder #30 provides precise case positioning and reliable extraction for multiple rifle calibers during reloading operations. This universal steel shell holder eliminates the need for multiple holders when working with compatible cartridge cases.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic shell holders that may allow case movement during sizing operations, this precision-machined steel holder maintains exact case alignment throughout the reloading cycle. The hardened steel construction resists wear from repeated use with high-pressure rifle cartridges. Standard shell holders often require replacement after extended use, but this holder's durable construction handles thousands of reloading cycles without dimensional changes.
