Lee Breech Lock Pro Shell Plate #16 (500 S&W Magnum)

The Lee Breech Lock Pro Shell Plate #16 (Lee part no. 90659) is the caliber-specific plate that lets Lee‘s Breech Lock Pro progressive press index and hold 500 S&W Magnum and 7.62x54R cases through every station of the loading cycle. Each plate is machined for the exact case-head dimensions of its listed cartridges, so cases seat square and eject cleanly without the wobble a mismatched plate would cause. This is a replacement or add-on plate only, sold for reloaders who already run a Breech Lock Pro press and are adding a new caliber to their lineup.
