The Hornady Shell Plate Number 40 is precision-machined steel and serves as an essential component for reloaders working with .50 Action Express. This Lock-N-Load AP Progressive Press Shell Plate makes changing calibers a breeze on your Hornady Lock-N-Load Press and the older Hornady Projector Press.
The plate features a subtle radius on each shell holder mouth to ensure smooth and reliable functioning, and the retainer spring is designed to stay in place when inserting cases into the shell plate. The shell plate is precision machined from solid steel and heat-treated to perform flawlessly, with a wide mouth and rounded edge at the opening for smoother case insertion. This shell plate is designed to work with the EZ-Ject System and Pro-Jector Presses.
A single shell plate may be used for multiple calibers with the same case head dimensions, making the #40 a versatile choice for handgun reloaders.
