LEE Shell Holder and Case Length Gauge for .380 Auto (9mm Short) Caliber
LEE precision case length gauges represent the pinnacle of accuracy and reliability in the realm of metallic and semi-metallic cartridge reloading. Specifically engineered for the .380 Auto (9mm Short) caliber, these gauges ensure that brass casings are trimmed to the exact manufacturer-recommended length, optimizing ballistic performance and chamber safety.
Utilizing advanced machining tolerances, the LEE case length gauge provides reloaders and precision shooters with an indispensable tool for maintaining consistent cartridge dimensions. Proper case length is critical to prevent excessive headspace, ensure reliable chambering, and maintain optimal pressure levels during firing.
Operation of this gauge requires the complementary LEE Case Trimmer Cutter, model number 90110, which interfaces seamlessly with the gauge to deliver precise and repeatable brass trimming. This cutter is designed to work in tandem with the gauge, allowing for efficient removal of excess brass material without compromising case integrity.
Each blister pack includes one case length gauge calibrated to the exact length specification for the .380 Auto cartridge, along with a dedicated shell holder tailored to securely hold the brass during the trimming process. The shell holder ensures proper alignment and stability, which are essential for achieving uniform case length and enhancing overall reloading precision.
For reloaders seeking to optimize their ammunition for competitive shooting, self-defense, or hunting applications, the LEE Shell Holder and Case Length Gauge system offers a robust solution that enhances consistency, safety, and ballistic efficiency. Incorporating this tool into your reloading bench setup is a fundamental step toward achieving superior cartridge performance and extending the lifespan of your brass inventory.
