Hornady Lock and Load?

[moosedude]

I was hoping for really good things with my Hornady LnL Progressive. I'm pretty disappointed though. Maybe it's me but I never had so many hiccups constantly, while trying to reload on this press. I was using for rifle rounds, constantly have issues with primer seating, powder measure actuator rolling the case mouth, inconsistent powder charges, and if a grain of dust gets caught in the primer feed system, it throws it off and primers don't seat right. Too many issues. I now use it as a purely single stage press. I put the powder funnel in a separate stand and do everything slow. I'm just amortizing my right off until I can buy something else.

Many of the problems you are describing can likely be adjusted out. The primer shuttle needs a drop or two of oil under it and the tube needs to be kept clean. If the powder measure is rolling the case, you can probably just raise it up a turn or two or try a different adapter thingy

Have 2 LNL'S not one problem. Set for rifle and pistol. That way I don't have to mess with adjusting the case feeder numerous times. De prime and size all bottle neck rifle brass before running it through the LNL.

Pistol just run them through after tumbling. With 44 mag or 45colt you might want to use a little case lube, even with carbide dies.

One year the press cranked out 20k in ammo.

Mix and match your dies. Dillon deprimer sizer is excellent. Just taking your time ...quality not quantity you can do easy 1000 45acp in just under 3 hours.
