I just got my grafts order in and My LEE 7.62 Nagant dies were included with shell holder! YES !
This weekend I am off and not another weekend for me for a few weeks. I was set to load and shoot my nagant -BUT- LLEE included a # 8 shell holder instead of the needed #6 shell holder! I have a large handfull of shell holders but none will work for the 32-20 case head.
What kills me is that this .32 cal revolver is a little bitty cart, But the included shell holder fits a , I dont know could be a 20 gauge or 45-70 or something , its very big. They also includes a 4.0cc powder scoop that is just as usefull as the shellholder.
OK rant over or at least backing off.
will any other # shell holders fit the 32-20 that you guys know of ? ....Thanks...Buck

Same thing happened to me with a Lee trimmer. Just called them up and they sent the right one. But still sucks for your weekend. I don't have one or I'd drop it in the mail for you tomorrow. Good luck on your search!

I know, sucks for the weekend, but call Lee and they'll make it right. Future weekends await you.

My Nagant set included the proper shell holder but the powder dipper was HUGE. I don't use the dippers so I wasn't too worried about it, just something I noticed.

i got a lee mould just before xmas. it was loose and wouldnt line up. it was back in just over a week, which amazed me considering the season.

just call them, they will probably send you the stuff no cost.

Are you sure they are the right dies? Maybe they sent 7.62x54 set. Whoa #8 is for 45-70.

Thanks all, They look to be the right dies, and I did find a RCBS shell holder to fit. Had to pay $10.00 for it but its worth it to get back on track. I will have to give lee a call and get a spare one I guess, I did pay for it after all.
One redeeming factor is the Lee 6 cav mold I got with it started easy dropping .315 great boolits right off the bat.

The dies will probably still say 32-20 on them. Mine do. If you lived near me, I'd loan you the shell holder but see you got one. You may have to tweek the dies to get them to work the way you want or need.
