I have all of the old Herters (or most of them)
shellholders but I lost the chart that shows
what number shellholder goes to what cartridge.
Does anyone have it?
Thanks guys
SS

I've got the 1966 #76 Herters Catalog. Tell what cartridges you have and I can tell you the shell holder number.

Elmo

I'd be interested in the following:
.30-06
.223 Rem
.30-30
.44 Mag

Thanks Elmo
I have the following
1-2-3-4-6-7-8-9-12-15-18-19-21-22-23-24-25-26-27-28-29
They are not for sale I was just needing the caliber info
Thanks again
SS

Well here goes. Remember this is 1966 terminology right from the catalog. I type with two fingers so this might take a while

Well that's it boys.
Anything after #26 came after 1966 when this catalog was printed. There sure are a few odd balls in there.

Has any body ever fired a round of every cartridge on this list?

Elmo

Great Job Elmo !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a bunch
I have shot most of them over the years but not all,I was trying to find the shellholder for
the 460 WM (50 BMD short)and none seemed to fit right.The complete list will save me alot of time
in the future.

I'm guessing the 460 Wby Mag must of been introduced after '65 then?

I love that old Herter's catalog. The one I have now is a re-issue, but my Dad bought me the original when I was 7 years old. I learned how to read from that book. The prices just kill me. In 1966 you could get a Beretta SilverHawk Side by Side 12 Gauge for $199.95

Glad I could help

Elmo

The stories that they had in some of the old Herters catalogs and reloading manuels were like you say, great reading!
Thanks again Elmo
