Re: What size shell holder for a .45 Auto rim?
LEE #13 shellholder. I reloaded .45 auto rim for a time, while I had a S&W 625. I really like the cartridge because it allowed me to leave those cruddy half moon clips at home
 My favorite load was 4.0 gr. AA#2 under a cast 255 gr LFN from a LEE mold. A very mild load and darn accurate.
