Lee 90205 Shell Holder AP Only #5 - 223 WSSM / 257 Wthby / 6.5 Rem Mag / 338 Win Mag

The Lee Precision 90205 Shell Holder is a precision-machined steel shell holder built exclusively for the Lee Auto Prime and Auto Prime II hand priming tools. Marked Size #5, this AP Only shell holder is sized to firmly grip the case head of 223 WSSM, 257 Weatherby Magnum, 6.5 Remington Magnum, and 338 Winchester Magnum cases during the priming stage of reloading.

The shell holder is the small but critical interface between the brass case and the priming tool. It grips the shell rim so the case stays precisely oriented while a new primer is seated or a spent primer is removed. Lee's AP Only shell holders are purpose-built for the Auto Prime / Auto Prime II hand priming tools and are not interchangeable with standard press shell holders. The silver steel finish resists corrosion from frequent handling and contact with brass, and the compact design makes it quick to swap between calibers on the loading bench.

This listing is for one (1) shell holder, Size #5, in the AP Only configuration. It is the correct choice - or a welcome spare - for any handloader running a Lee Auto Prime or Auto Prime II tool who works with the calibers listed above.
