## Questions & Answers

**Q: What # is this plate, and will it seat a .223 rem. brass?**
A: This one is #6. You need #16 for 223http://www.hornady.com/store/Choose-Shell-Plate-by-Number/

**Q: Your ad's image shows a shell holder, but the description is of a shell plate (model no. 392602). They are different products. Is the image a mistake?**
A: Yes, they have the wrong picture.  Pictured is a Hornady shell holder, not a shell plate.

**Q: Is this the shell plate or the die**
A: The part number suggests that its the shell plate, #45, for 45 ACP  (hornady part number 392645).  The image is not consistent with that part number, or the price.
