[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 2109039, member: 87371"] I'm wondering if the shell holder you're using is really the correct one for .308-sized case heads. There are several shell holders that will accept a .308-sized case head but are not really for them. IIRC, Swedish Mauser case heads are similar but have a thicker rim, but a .308 sized case head would fit in and wobble around a little. Some rimmed cartridges are also close enough that your case would slide in but not be held firmly. All of which tells us the people who manufacture reloading equipment would be doing us a favor by standardizing the nomenclature and numbering of their equipment. But then we might interchange products instead of buying only their brand. All of which will be mooted when you receive your new (and correct) shell holder. [/QUOTE]
