The RCBS Shell Holder #47 delivers precise case positioning and secure grip for reloading operations. This hardened steel shell holder ensures consistent cartridge alignment during resizing, priming, and bullet seating operations.
What Makes This Different
The #47 shell holder features precision-machined dimensions that match SAAMI specifications for exact cartridge fit. Unlike generic alternatives, RCBS shell holders undergo heat treatment processes that create uniform hardness across the entire component. The numbered identification system eliminates guesswork when selecting the correct holder for specific cartridge cases.
Key Features
- Hardened steel construction resists wear from repeated cycling
- Precision-machined rim groove matches cartridge case specifications
- Heat-treated surface provides consistent grip strength
- Numbered identification prevents mixing with other shell holders
- Compatible with RCBS Rock Chucker and Partner press models
- Standard 7/8-14 thread pattern fits most reloading presses
- Beveled entry guides cartridge cases into proper position
Reloaders depend on consistent case positioning to achieve uniform powder charges and bullet seating depths. The #47 shell holder maintains cartridge alignment throughout the reloading cycle, preventing case damage that can occur with loose-fitting alternatives. Match shooters and volume reloaders rely on this level of precision for ammunition that performs to specification.
