Progressive reloading thats smooth, precise and fast.

With a single pull of the handle, youll feel the difference between this high-performance machine and ordinary reloading presses.

All you need are dies and shell plates to start loading with your Hornady AP!

QUICK CHANGE LOCK-N-LOAD BUSHING SYSTEM

The Lock-N-Load AP has a 5-station quick change bushing system that allows quick and easy change overs from 223 to 45 in less than 5 minutes.

QUICK CHANGE METERING INSERTS

The Lock-N-Load powder measure uses quick change metering inserts that allow you to switch from one powder to another with the push of a button. Add one to each die set for the ultimate in quick change overs.

RELIABLE EZJECT SYSTEM

The EZject feature delivers 100% reliable ejection of every cartridge, every time, without any adjustments.

UNIVERSAL CASE RETAINER SPRING

The ingenious case retainer spring allows you to quickly and easily remove or insert a case at any point in the loading process.

PRIMING SYSTEM

The Lock-N-Load AP System can be changed from large to small primers as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Change the primer seater punch.
2. Change the primer shuttle.
3. Change the primer feed tube.

CASE ACTIVATED POWDER DROP

Case activated powder drop will dispense a powder charge only when a cartridge case is present.

AUTOMATIC INDEXING

Each station moves half a stage on the down stroke and half on the up stroke, making for ultra smooth functioning. This process is much smoother than presses that do all their indexing on the down stroke.
