A number 10 MIGHT work for you.
But that is based on me trying the different holders on my own brass.
#3 is a bit sloppy and may leave you in a worse pickle.
If you are trying to use the holder in a press, it may likely damage the rim on your brass.

Here is another source, the one I use.
Universal Shell Holders (http://www.titanreloading.com/lee-universal-shellholder-set?keyword=Shell%20holders&category_id=0&description=1&model=1) Note that these DO NOT work in the priming tool.

For my priming tools, I have two sets of these. (http://www.titanreloading.com/lee-auto-prime-shellholder-sets?keyword=Shell%20holders&category_id=0&description=1&model=1)

This supplier has the best prices I have seen in the States.

Unless this is the shellholder for the Lee handprimer get the proper RCBS, Redding, or Lyman shellholder. It'll work just fine on your press.

Way to go, Chicken Thief! Us .30-06 fans have to stick together, even if thousands of miles apart.

Thanx a lot Gents!
I think I'll get the set of 11- never know when you'll need them!
Chicken Thief- I'd take you up on your offer but I need it ASAP as it' s going far away to the wilds of the East..

Chicken Thief will not be on the board for some time.

That's one of the main reason's I bought both set's of shellholder's from LEE when I first got started.

Good point on the Lee sets, I have the primer set and it's very convenient. IIRC I ordered it when I couldn't find a certain die, now I use it and keep the singles for spares.
