WHAT RCBS SHELL HOLDER IS USED FOR 243 WINCHESTER ?
448887
As the 243 winchester is developed from the 30-06 case it uses the same shellholder. The RCBS number is 3

Usually you need one type of shell holder for the press, that is caliber specific, or that fits the base of the case. The other type of shell holder is shorter and fits the hand priming tools, looks similar, but without the step on the bottom

Its a universal fit shell holder. A little awkward to get used to.. will not work with the primer still in the brass

YES - it should work fine - according to the instruction manual "The Universal Shell Holder accepts cases from .32 ACP to .45-70 Gov't. Simply install the proper threaded primer seating plug and primer feeds for large or small primers and you are ready to prime your cases." If you want to know for sure before you buy contact RCBS at http://www.rcbs.com/general/ask.aspx or 1-800-533-5000

There are no shell plates - the brass is held in a shell holder. Shell holders are caliber specific, so NONE come with the press. The correct shell holder is included with Lee Die sets; other die manufacturers may or may not include the shell holder in which case you purchase it separately. (The press comes with one TURRET which will accept any standard dies.)

All of the RCBS die sets tell what size shell holder is needed for each caliber, good luck..

My RCBS press takes standard press shell holders. I do know that my Lee hand priming tool uses its own shell holders that cannot be used in my press. As far as I know, the Lee hand priming tool shell holders are exclusive to that unit only.

although I don't own a rock chucker press I have used the Lyman die in my lee press and I am told that both presses use the same diameter and thread pattern so as far as I know they should work in the RCBS press

I have both a Lyman and an RCBS press. I have never had a problem with dies fitting either press. I believe that dies all meet some industry standard for threads. I have never found one in the past 20 years for reloading that was a different thread. I also own those dies and they fit my Lyman press.

Yes and no... the Lyman All American press used the old J type shell holder and requires a J to X shell holder adapter to be able to use standard shell holders from Lee, RCBS, Hornady and Lyman, but once you purchase the adapter you can use any standard shell holder.

I bought mine for a Remington 870 and it wouldn't fit. I did not try to pry it on as I didn't want to ruin the stock. And that was empty, I couldn't imagine getting it on with shells. I guess I'll use it as an arm band shell holder.

Some shell holders can be used for a couple of different calibers. Like for instance, I think a 380acp shell also fits one for 9mm. Plus, if you buy a die set for what ever caliber your reloading, it comes with a shell holder.

NO. The # 10 shell holder is for the 5.56 AR cartridge. You need the #32 shell holder.I have reloaded som 7.62x39 using RCBS dies. Remember most 7.62x39 rounds use Berdan primers and can't be reloaded: The can but it is a pain in the ---. There is 7.62x39 brass on the internet available that are Boxer primed and therefore can be reloaded. Caution: Some brass use large rifle primers and some use small rifle primers.Cut and paste the following for 7.62x39 brass: http://www.ballisticproducts.com/RWS-Brass-762-x-39-Unprimed-100_bag/productinfo/66476239/?EM130511A brass:

I don't know for sure if the Hornady shell holders will work. Call the customer service people at Lee, I'm sure that they would be able to tell you if they will work or not.

Kurt, any standard shell holder will work. I use a rcbs shell holder in mine. If you buy this trimmer, understand that the pilot will come off with each trimmed casing. It can be annoying. Good luck and have fun.

Any RCBS press that I've seen uses the standard dies, an example being the Rockchucker Supreme. The Lee dies fit nicely, I also buy the Hornaday locking rings which sets the depth. The set screws seem to hold a better measurement than the standard Lee Precision locking ring with the O-ring.

Yes, # 16 RCBS shell holder is for the entire range of 9mm cases. I am using it for the 9mm Luger
