L.E. Wilson 30-30 Winchester Fired Case Holder CH-3030

Description

The L.E. Wilson 30-30 Winchester Fired Case Holder is the piece that makes a Wilson trimmer setup do its job on the 30-30 family of brass. Instead of grabbing the case head like a shell holder, this one supports the case by its body taper, much the way a rifle chamber does. That full-body support is the whole trick behind how repeatable these holders are: the case sits the same way every single time, so your trim length stays uniform across a whole batch.

This is the fired-case version, machined for brass that has been fired and neck sized. If you full-length resize or work with new brass, you'd want the New Case holder instead, since the two are cut to different dimensions. The holder itself is machined from billet steel and finished with a protective coating, so it shrugs off bench wear and lasts about as long as you'll be reloading.

What the 30-30 Fired Case Holder Covers

The 30-30 family holder handles more than just 30-30 Winchester. It fits 32 Winchester Special, 38-55 Winchester, 25 Remington, 30 Remington, and 32 Remington brass, since those cartridges share close enough case dimensions. That makes it a handy one to have if you load more than one of the old lever and pump rounds.

Getting the Most From Your Wilson Setup

This holder is built to run with the L.E. Wilson Case Trimmer, and it isn't just for trimming. The same holder works for primer pocket reaming, neck reaming, and deburring when you add the L.E. Wilson Uniform Deburring Tool, which is sold separately. Cases press in and out of the holder, and a lot of folks keep a wooden dowel handy to tap them loose without marring the brass. If you already run a Wilson trimmer and load for the 30-30 family, this is the matching holder you need to get clean, consistent results.
