I'm trying to using a rcbs trim pro case trimmer to trim my 6.5 Grendel brass. Trying to find out what case trimmer shell plate holder to use? Have called rcbs and they have no clue. Have found online three different choices, use a #4, #8, and #14, does anyone know exactly which one to use? Thanks
 
Not familiar with the RCBS Trim Pro but the standard shellholder for 6.5 Grendel is the same one for 7.62x39 AK round, and also the 6MM PPC which is #32. From Hornady and Redding they use the same standard shellholder for .357 magnum pistol.

I could not find the RCBS #32 holder for the 6.5 so I bought the one for the 357 mag, the #6. It holds the 6.5 just fine. If you look at measurements for the 6.5 and 357, they are close. I think the one for the 357 was a little tighter.
