Shell holder for 8x50r lebel

[Silverplate]

Can some one tell me what Hornady shell holder to use for the 8x50r Lebel rifle? I believe it is number four but I am finding conflicting info on the web.

Thank you.

Hornady #49. Works well on Prvi 8x50R brass that i convert to to 10.4x 41R Swiss.

Hornady #48 is for 8mm x 27R Lebel PISTOL

Think the proof reader for the label printer was out to lunch.

Are you using one of the Hornady case trimmer tools that you need a Hornady Shell holder?

Thanks for the responses.

I have a set of Honady dies in 8x50r and the die box says to use a number four shell holder but that conflicts with everything else I am finding. I will try a Honady number 49.

Thank you.

☺ Same thing happened to my 338 Lapua dies and 7.5 Swiss dies.

338 Lapua die set box said Shell holder #38, should have been #43
7.5 Swiss dies set box said shell Holder #30, should have been #2

Think the Label printer proof reader was out to lunch for the change overs.

Interesting that Hornady has been making this mistake on multiple die calibers. Something to keep in mind for the future.
Thanks Diopter.
