The RCBS Pro Chucker 7 Shell Plate #17 is the part that grips each case head and carries it around the plate as your press auto-indexes. It's precision-machined from steel to hold brass securely at every station, which is what keeps your feeding smooth and your rounds consistent through sizing, priming, powder, and seating. On a seven-station progressive, that steady case alignment is the difference between a clean run and a jam-up, so this is one part you don't want to skimp on.
RCBS keeps this simple: the shell plate number matches the shell holder number for your cartridge. The #17 lines up with the RCBS #17 shell holder, which covers the 30 M1 Carbine and the 32 Automatic (7.65mm Auto). If you already know which shell holder your die box calls for, you're set. When in doubt, pull up the RCBS shell holder chart and match the number to your case head before ordering, since some cartridges with similar rims can trip you up.
This plate is made to configure both the Pro Chucker 5 and Pro Chucker 7 auto-index progressive presses. One thing worth knowing: a shell plate is required to actually run the press, so if you're setting up a new machine or adding a caliber, this is a must-have rather than an accessory. Installation is straightforward. You raise the ram, drop in the indexing ball bearing and spring, set the plate in the correct orientation, and lock it down with the washer and nut. Swapping calibers later is a quick job once you've done it once.
RCBS builds these in the USA and backs its reloading gear with a reputation for lasting decades on the bench. If you run a Pro Chucker and load 30 Carbine or 32 Auto, the #17 is the plate that keeps the whole operation turning over cleanly.
The #17 plate matches the RCBS #17 shell holder, which covers the 30 M1 Carbine and 32 Automatic (7.65mm Auto). The shell plate number always corresponds to the shell holder number for your cartridge. If you're unsure, check the RCBS shell holder chart or the bottom of your die box before ordering.
Yes. RCBS designed these plates to configure both the Pro Chucker 5 and Pro Chucker 7 auto-index progressive presses. Keep in mind that running Pro Chucker 5 plates on a Pro Chucker 7 requires the separate Pro Chucker 5 to 7 Conversion Kit, so make sure your setup matches the plate.
You do. A shell plate is required to actually operate the press, so it isn't an optional add-on. Each caliber family needs the correct numbered plate to hold cases at the right dimensions and keep feeding reliable.
Raise the ram to the middle of the stroke, drop in the indexing ball bearing and spring, then set the plate on top in the proper orientation. Secure it with the washer and nylock nut and you're ready to run. It takes a minute the first time and becomes second nature after that.
