.43 Spanish

[Dave Fox]

   I'm undertaking reloading for a newly-acquired Remington rolling block carbine in .43 Spanish. I acquired thirty rounds of Bertram brass but have discovered it includes two rim designs. The #17 shell holder that came with my dies handles the brass with a thinner rim. What shell holder handles the thicker? The thicker rim includes a rebated portion next to the base. #@!!*% site won't let me post a photograph.

This one should work. https://www.buffaloarms.com/ch4d-11-shell-holder-4d40811sh

RCBS #22 should also fit.

Bertram modified the case head and rim thickness of his .43 Spanish, so you probably have have some earlier and later production--seems like it was only a few years ago, but I believe the changeover was in the mid-90's.
