i have a feeling the #22 rcbs is for 43 mauser but the bases on these cases look an awful lot "thicker" due to that funny looking raised base therefor making the whole base area thicker and i don't think it will slide in a regular shellholder (not enough clearance?).
heck i don't really know ,,,somebody will offer up a solution here , i hope.
have a great 2012 people.. :evil:[smilie=s::twisted:

I use RCBS #22 for my 43 Spanish and it is a close fit. I'm thinking that those 43 Mauser case rims are way too thick to fit in my #22.

RCBS #22 works fine for the .43 Spanish. Looking at the 11th ed of Cartridges of the World, it should work for the 11mm Mauser, although there may be a better one to use.

lasc's list shows #22 as the one to use for both the .43 Spanish and the 11mm Mauser.

I just dug out my shell head holders for the 43 mauser, and the RCBS #22 is the correct one for the case. I even tried it on some cases. The toolman

Your shellholder question has been answered - #22 rcbs

Can it be reloaded ? , yes dominion brass 43 mauser/ 11mm mauser is reloadable.
Some would argue it is not long lived though.
Design? It is know as a mauser "A" base case.
That particular case is generally for the m71 and m71/84 mausers, however the "A" base is used on a few other cases.

thanks for the info gentlemen. RCBS #22 it is then.

Pavogrande; thanks for the name of this type of brass i had no idea they even made such an animal until these came with my m71/84.
