9.3 x 62mm Reloading Question

[Slooshark1]

I'm trying to use a Lee Number 2 shellholder with my new RCBS dies and I'm finding the brass to be quite snug going into the shell holder. It still goes in but I have to remove the case from the ram with the shell holder still attached and then pop it off against my reloading table. Is there a better shellholder available for this calibre?


Thanks,

Got this little tidbit off a forum from a guy named 9.3x62AL.

...Graf's [9.3x 62] brass, and these are about .007" wider at the pressure belt. The Graf's brass requires the #2 RCBS shell holder, the 35 Whelens use the #3.

Well crap!!

I just got 100 new Graf 9.3X62 brass and the guy's right - they don't fit in a #3 RCBS shellholder.(Actually, a couple did. Quality control)

RWS, Norma and Lapua do but not the Graf. I guess I got what I paid for!!

On the bright side, they all fit into a Forster shellholder.
