Lee Precision 90208 Shell Holder #8 - Auto Prime Only Compatible

The Lee Precision 90208 Shell Holder #8 delivers reliable case holding for Auto Prime systems, engineered specifically for cartridges requiring the #8 shell holder specification. This precision-machined component ensures consistent primer seating and case alignment during reloading operations.

What Makes This Different

Unlike universal shell holders that compromise on fit, the Lee #8 shell holder maintains exact tolerances for specific cartridge dimensions. The hardened steel construction resists wear from repeated cycling, while the precision-ground interior surfaces prevent case damage during primer installation. This Auto Prime-only design eliminates compatibility issues found with multi-purpose holders.

Key Features

• Precision-machined hardened steel construction for long-term durability
• Auto Prime system exclusive compatibility - will not fit standard shell holder rams
• #8 specification fits cartridges including .25-06 Remington, .270 Winchester, .280 Remington
• Exact interior dimensions prevent case rim damage and ensure proper headspace
• Heat-treated surface resists wear from brass contact and cycling stress
• Chamfered entry reduces case insertion effort and prevents binding
• Compatible with Lee Auto Prime, Auto Prime XR, and hand-held priming tools

Reloaders processing medium to large rifle cartridges benefit from the secure case retention this holder provides during primer seating operations. The precise fit eliminates case movement that can cause primer misalignment or crushing, critical factors for accuracy in precision rifle applications and hunting loads. Competition shooters rely on this consistency for uniform primer depth across large batch runs.
