The Lee Pro 6000 Six Pack Shell Plate #8L (Lee Precision part no. 91843) is a caliber-specific shell plate for Lee Precision‘s Pro 6000 progressive press, identified by plate number rather than caliber the way Lee catalogs its whole Six Pack plate lineup. Lee catalogs plate #8L for 45-70 Govt, 348 Winchester, and 416 Rigby, so it’s the plate to reach for once you’re loading one of those cartridges on the Pro 6000. The Pro 6000’s six-station shell plate holds a case at each stage of the loading cycle — sizing, priming, powder charge, seating, and crimp — so the correct plate number is what actually lets the press index the right case head through every station. It’s sold as the shell plate on its own, so reloaders running more than one chambering through the same press can keep a plate on hand for each cartridge they load.
