The Hornady Reloading Shell Holder #51 (brand part no. 390601) is machined from solid steel and heat-treated to hold up to repeated use on the press. A wide mouth and rounded edge at the case opening let cases seat and release smoothly, cutting down on the fumbling that comes with a poorly fitted holder. Like other shell holders in the Hornady lineup, a single #51 holder can often be used across multiple calibers that share the same case head dimension, so one holder frequently covers more than just its namesake cartridge.
