Home Forums Reloading Bullet Casting Herters Press

Hey guys: Need a little help here, can any of you tell me what number shell holder you need for a 38 spec. Herter's??Got an old press and don't know the number for the holder I need. Thank you ahead of time!

I know from experience that what Herters used to say about their shell holders didn't match reality. In the case of 338Win. Mag. I had to go to Mitchell S.D. and physically try several to find one that would hold the cases. Maybe their new stuff isn't "World Class" like their old stuff but may be better quality.

You can get one of these for the old press and then use your standard shell holder you already have.

res45, thanks a million for the info!!! if I can ever do anything for you, please feel free to ask. I have some extra shell holders for a Herter's press, if you are in need.

NP oldgunsmith I don't even own a Herters press I just enjoy helping people find info there looking for. I use a 20+ year old Lyman crusher single stage press to load everything I shoot.
