Hornady LNL AP Progressive Caliber Changeover 45ACP - 357MAG

[carmas54]

OK I read all of the comments and I'm still missing where you got the powder measure spacers, did you make them or buy them some where? Thanks

[lEgaLiZeVOLVE]

How much does it cost once your "set up" to make 50 .45ACP bullets or 20 .308 bullets

Gavin, I see your marketing more and more of the "home made add-ons" you have done for the LNL, (the press handle, the front bin holder), what about your powder charge adaptor rings, if I had a lathe, I could make them too, but I dont, but it seems that you could reference off of a specific caliber (prob. 9mm since its the shortest) and then sell quick rings to raise the lower assembly. Gotta be cheaper than the 30 bucks hornady is charging for new lowers + a bushing to achieve the same thing

Where did you get the spacer for the powder measure?

[billdawg79]

The Spacers for the powder... Did you make them or buy them?

[EESASTORM]

Did I miss where you changed out the powder measure?

I think that is a very important part of the process.

Shooting the same load in various calibers is not very likely and could be dangerous.

Mind you with the LNL system it is very easy to do if you have preset powder meeasures. They just snap in and out as well.

Great video... love the spacers instead of buying new stems for each load.

[mdmyers7206]

Uh, yeah you did. Check at about 1:00.

[EESASTORM]

No that does not alter the amount of powder that is thrown when the press is operated.

That is done by the meter that rotates up and down.

That said the "spacer" idea is very good. It allows quick set up in terms of when in the stroke the powder drop is activated.

[mdmyers7206]

Oh, I see. Thank you for the clarification!

[EESASTORM]

Not a problem at all.

I was just concerned that people might not know and overcharge a load.

Nice videos. I have the Hornady L-n-L Classic ordered ( a month ago). Mine is the single stage press kit. I have been watching your videos and trying to soak up all I can about reloading.

Thanks again!!

[Randomprecinct]

how quick is the classic? I'm contemplating whether to splurge and buy an automatic press or to save and buy the classic. please help me out.

[IndyGunFreak]

No Single Stage press is going to be "quick"... If you want quick, you need to go w/ a Progressive or Turret press of some sort. Single stage is great to learn on however, and I'd recommend everybody have one.

[Mercenary357]

Do you have a setting marked for each different caliber you do? I have one of these presses too, just recently bought. I am getting a few more things for it this weekend but was just curious what you do with the different powder measures.

[jumbys01]

Thanks for taking the time to make your great videos. Can you tell me how to make the spacers with measurements? What a great invention!

[pinoykillaz]

do i need shell holder aswell?or juz the shell plate?

[DobermansRock]

I want to reload .45 acp. 38 special, .357 mag. 357 sig. .40. cal. 7mm-08, .308, 30-06, .32acp, 12 gauge. Can I do it under 500.00 with the hornady?

[gavintoobe]

No, you'll need dies and shellplates for each caliber, plus the cost of the press. Figure $400 for the press delivered, plus $60-80 for each caliber for the shellplate, dies, and LNL bushings. Well worth the investment to get the "right gear"

[gavintoobe]

One more thing, you need a separate press for shotgun loading.

[ForNowKing]

@DobermansRock one thing to figure into the cost is 500 free bullet offer from hornady exipres 12/31/11

could save you about $150.

I love my hornady ap press i loaded with a lee for years but they are cheaply made but funtional they just wear out quick a year or two has been my experince before somthing breaks. if your loading for all the above calibers and shoot them much lee will wear out quick spend the money for a better quality

except for your 12 gauge then get a lee loadall unde$100

[DobermansRock]

@ForNowKing Hornady IS THE WAY TO GO... Especially since they throw in bullets with all major components.

[TXWARDEN]

I love your videos, I have an LNL too! I am impressed with the spacer rings for your powder measure, did you make them yourself?? Very Cool, keep making more videos!!!
