    Help needed to identify reloading press parts

    I just got these today along with 6 old reloading presses I bought and I don't know what they are for. They don't match any of the presses I picked up...... Can anybody identify them please?

    The holes are threaded like they hold a set of dies.

    Many thanks in advance to IvanAnimal for referring me to antiquereloadingtools.com

    It is for a Ponsness Warren Metallic II

    Got me. Is there another layer / plate on the underside that's blocking hte holes in the brass cylinders, or is that a visual artifact / flash reflection from the inner face of the cylinders?
    I'm guessing those holes are primer-sized?
    I've never seen a layout in that sort of shallow arch.

    Give that it's black overall I'm gonna guess it's a Lee part, their Red-black paint scheme.

        I'm afraid I can't help much either. They look like they could be used in an angle adjustment mechanism.

          I think there used to be a press that took those at the Agoura Range. For the life of me, I can't remember who made it though. IIRC, it had some red parts but, it wasn't Lee or Hornady.

            Try looking on CH4D's website, looks kinda like somthing they might've built in the past. Obviously looks like parts to an H style type of press but check their site to be sure.

                Looks like toolheads for an H type press.

                These guys would know.

                I had a CH inline press that was similar. The color of yours suggests early Pacific or Hollywood to me.

                  I was thinking pacific too.
                  Shotshell press because there are 4 stations and the part is just held down by two flat-head screws.
                  Shotshells don't take a lot of force so it makes the most sense that these are shotshell press toolheads.

                  Upon more searching, I found this page:



                  None of those presses look like they take those plates.
                  Now I am thinking Herters or Hollywood.

                    Brake pads for a razor scooter?

                    OR

                    Elbow hinge plate for a titanium body armor?
