RCBS 9208 Single Stage Shell Holder #8 for .45 Auto Rim Reloading

The RCBS 9208 Single Stage Shell Holder #8 secures .45 Auto Rim cases with precision during the reloading process. This specialized shell holder eliminates case movement and ensures consistent primer seating and powder charging for optimal ammunition quality.

What Makes This Different

The #8 shell holder features RCBS's proprietary hardened steel construction with precise internal dimensions machined specifically for .45 Auto Rim cartridge cases. Unlike universal holders that rely on spring tension, this model provides rigid case support through exact dimensional matching. The hardened steel construction resists wear even after thousands of reloading cycles, maintaining consistent case alignment throughout the press stroke.

Key Features

• Hardened steel construction for maximum durability and wear resistance
• Precision-machined internal dimensions for .45 Auto Rim cases
• Compatible with all RCBS single stage reloading presses
• Numbered identification system prevents mixing with other calibers
• Smooth interior finish reduces case extraction force
• Heat-treated steel maintains dimensional stability under pressure
• Standard 7/8-14 thread pattern fits most single stage presses

Reloaders working with .45 Auto Rim cartridges benefit from the consistent case positioning this shell holder provides during each operation. The rigid case support prevents movement during primer removal and installation, resulting in uniform primer seating depth. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent ammunition quality achieved through precise case alignment during powder charging and bullet seating operations.
