Hornady® Lock-N-Load® Deluxe Powder Measure — Efficiency and Accuracy

The Lock-N-Load® powder measure offers the most flexible operation and the widest range of any powder measure. It ranges from .5 - 265 grains of powder (special metering inserts and rotor required). Metering inserts can be changed with the push of a button. Comes with standard rotor and metering insert.

The Lock-N-Load Deluxe Powder Measure is the only system that uses a full size powder measure that can be reset to another charge or powder with the push of a button. The unique inserts in the measure can be preset to the charge you use with the caliber you are loading.

Push a button, change inserts and powder and you’re ready to go. Inserts can be adjusted for almost any charge. The most flexible (and economical) powder system available for progressive presses. (With optional powder die you never have to readjust for a caliber conversion. It switches instantly.) Mounts to your bench or press.

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Deluxe Powder Measure is loaded with innovative features that serious reloaders demand. The design allows you to change powders and settings with the push of a button.

With the proper accessories you can dispense between .5 and 75 grains of powder. The push button release allows you to quickly change metering inserts for predetermined charge weights, so you can switch calibers quickly and easily without the hassle of resetting the measure.

The tension on the metering insert is adjustable with an "O" ring that allows a slight amount of tension on the metering insert to make fine, incremental adjustments. The precision tolerance of .002" between the drum and rotor eliminate powder binding between the frame and the drum. Measure comes with small and large drop tubes plus a mounting plate. Measure has standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies.

Hornady Reloading

Stay Loaded: Reloading provides the ability for shooters to customize loads for individual firearms; it’s an excellent past time, and often offsets much of the cost of shooting by reusing the most expensive component of ammunition – the cartridge case. Not only do handloaders maintain control of the ammunition assembling process, but there’s an overwhelming feeling of self satisfaction when you knock over that plate, hammer the X ring or drop that buck of a lifetime with ammunition that you handloaded.

Lock-N-Load®: Reloading is all about control. The patented Hornady® Lock-N-Load technology offers complete control, allowing you to change dies and begin loading another caliber in seconds.

Eliminate Hassle: The Hornady Lock-N-Load system features quick tool change technology that allows you to switch rifle and pistol dies, powder dies, check dies, bullet seaters or crimp dies without having to change the whole die head. This unique technology is featured on our Lock-N-Load Classic and Lock-N-Load AP presses. In addition, Hornady conversion bushings can convert other brands to the Lock-N-Load system.

About Hornady

"Ten bullets through one hole" was the philosophy of Joyce Hornady, the company's founder. This great idea of accuracy and perfection has continued from the first bullet made more than sixty years ago, right through today.

Like so many successful companies, Hornady Manufacturing was born out of one man's vision of a better product for his own use. Joyce Hornady was an avid shooter and needed a steady supply of good, accurate bullets. While commercially available bullets were usable, Joyce felt that better bullets could be made.

Hornady is now one of the largest independent producers of bullets in the World. Hornady sell bullets as separate components, loaded in Hornady Ammunition, and also to other ammunition companies to be loaded in their premium grade ammo.

The stature of Hornady Manufacturing Company within its industry has never been higher. Combine the best customer base with the best employees, throw in the family/management team running this business; it's hard not to be successful.

Quality. Continuous improvement. Innovation. Responsiveness. Looking to the future, it appears that the Hornady heritage and the Hornady vision will continue to shine brightly.
