The Elegant 22" Natural Horn Shell Decorative Plate from Hornady is a versatile shell plate designed for reloaders using Hornady's Lock-N-Load AP and Pro-Jector progressive presses. This component is essential for setting up your press to handle specific calibers, and each plate accommodates multiple cartridges that share the same case head dimensions—a smart way to maximize your reloading setup's flexibility without buying a plate for every caliber you work with.
Whether you're loading .223 Remington for the range, .308 Winchester for hunting, or any number of other calibers, Hornady's shell plate system lets you swap between loads quickly by simply changing the plate rather than reconfiguring your entire press. The natural horn construction gives these plates durability and a classic look on the bench, and they're built to integrate seamlessly with both EZ-Ject and wire ejector models of the Lock-N-Load AP.
If you're running an older Hornady press with the original spring-type cartridge case ejector system, you'll need to purchase the 749-012-552 Hornady Auto press retrofit kit to use current shell plates. For a complete caliber compatibility chart and to verify which plate fits your specific cartridges and press model, Hornady's tech support team at 800-717-8211 can walk you through the selection process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this shell plate work with my older Hornady press?
If your press uses the original spring-type cartridge case ejector system, you'll need to purchase the Hornady 749-012-552 Auto press retrofit kit to use current shell plates. For older presses with this style ejector, contact Hornady tech support at 800-717-8211 to confirm compatibility.
How many calibers can one shell plate hold?
Each shell plate holds the primary caliber it's designed for, plus any additional calibers that share the same case head dimensions. Consult the Hornady Shell Plate Chart or their tech support to see which cartridges are grouped together for your specific plate.
What's included with the shell plate?
The listing covers the shell plate itself. Any additional components, such as retrofit kits or press-specific adapters, are sold separately.
