Lyman shell holder #16

[salpal48]

I picked up an X16 and a J16 . I am unable to find out what caliber these will fit. I have searched many old lyman books but they do not have any info on these
any one have any info

[Mr_Sheesh]

https://www.lymanproducts.com/contacts/ is all I can suggest, looked around and not seeing anything to match that #.

Just checked the S H cross reference in Lyman Hand book #46 and LCBHB #4, neither one lists a lyman #16

Measurement of the shell holder across the "ID" and "OD" dimensions might let us guess better if the manufacturer cannot help, also.

Sure it's not an RCBS shell holder? 9 Luger- 30 Mauser. Gp

Found this:..For use with Lyman older Presses ( Tru-Line Jr/ All American Turret / & Comet).
Fits: 45 Colt; 45 Schofield; 44-40: 44 Mag; 44 Spl; 8mm Mauser; 6.5x57R Brennke; 8x57 JRS.
This is no longer manufactured! "J" Type Shell Holder

The above nfo got from some one who collects / sells old equipment

FROM LYMAN via email:

" That was used for 8x57 JRS it is essentially a rimmed 8mm Mauser"


I aplogize for the error...
and forwarded my info to the person that collects it..
