7.5x55 Swiss caliber conversion kit
Quote from Reloader on August 21, 2008, 7:28 pmI have the following problem. I purchased the 7.5x55 Swiss caliber conversion kit for my XL650.
But the the 7.5x55 brasses simply dont fit the shellplate. I can slide in the brass and then pull it out easily upwards.
So I can say this shellplate is definitly the wrong one for this caliber. I use standard GP11 swiss military surplus brasses. The shellplate is "C" plate.

The C plate is correct for the brass currently being imported by Graf and Sons and Hornady. All the boxer-primed European-made cases we could find fit it fine. If your cases have a smaller head, the #1 shellplate or L shellplate would be a better fit.
