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?

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.

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

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

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

[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

Where did you get the spacer for the powder measure?

[billdawg79]

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

[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.

[EESASTORM]

Not a problem at all.

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

Oh, I see. Thank you for the clarification!
