Default 9mm Shell Holder Help

I unearthed a couple hundred pieces of Norma 9mm brass that dates back to the early 80s. They don't fit in my RCBS 9mm shell holder. Looks like the extractor groove isn't cut as deep or the rim is thicker than other brands of brass.
Can anyone recommend another brand of shell holder that might be able to accommodate this brass? Thanks for any help.

I don't know what size in another brand but is your RCBS holder a #16?

Default 9mm Shell Holder

A Lee #19 should work. Lee has the same shell holder for both 9mm and 40 S&W so it's a little bit bigger than the RCBS #16. RCBS uses a different shell holder for 40 S&W. Lee shell holders are also less expensive than RCBS and I find them just as good.
