HI Everyone
I own a Lee Load Master and it uses a 5 stage shell plate . Now I know Lee dosn`t make a shell plate to accommodate a 8.57 Mauser case but there must be a plate that will and i`m thinking the 308. dose anyone think different I also looking for one to take the 7.62x54r any ideas

Yes, it's for the 45 ACP, 308, 30.06 based cartridges.
All of the .473 base cartridges like the 30-06, .270, 308, 45acp, and many others, are based on the 8x57 round (not invented by Mauser).
