njc110381 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Now I've got my .375H&H I'm thinking I need to get the reloading kit together. It should save me some money, and besides that I quite enjoy it. I've found brass, bullets and reloading dies. I already have the press and powder as they seem to like the same powder as my 6.5x55. Problem is I use a Lee auto prime to prime the cases, and I can't find the shell holder to fit the H&H. Is there a manual way to prime the cases so I don't need to buy specialist kit, or does a shell holder exist but I can't see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vermincinerator Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 NJC, As nearly every belted magnum case (apart from some Weatherby's) is based on the .375H&H you will have no problem finding a shell holder. ie: 300 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag, etc...........

njc110381 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 So a .300win mag holder will fit? That's great, thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Now I know where to look I've actually found the .375H&H listed as one of the calibres for that holder. They just don't list it on the data in the catalogue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A I have a 375 H&H for Elk hunting. In a decently designed stock, the recoil isn't unmanageable.~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 You sometimes find that with the larger cases that one has to relieve the upper edge of the Lee primer in order for the cases to fit into the shell holder without fouling the side of the primer tool body. If this happens use a sanding drum (with dremel) it fits and does the job perfectly - I had to do this for WSM and Lapua Magnum cases with my lee primer tools.
