The Hornady Universal Shell Holder, Size #45 (Hornady part no. 390606) is precision machined from solid steel and heat-treated to hold up to repeated reloading cycles. It is sized to fit .400 Corbon, snapping directly into the ram of a single-stage reloading press to hold the cartridge in perfect alignment for every operation. A wide mouth and rounded edge at the opening let the case seat smoothly without binding, and there are no set screws to adjust or lose. Built by Hornady, it fits Hornady presses as well as most other single-stage and turret presses on the market.
