Decided I'd give the progressive world a try. I went red instead of blue.

Find about 3+ hours of UNDISTURBED time to get setup and running....

Should be a good loader. Did it come with a powder measure?

Congrats, it is a fine loader, I love mine.

Just make sure you keep the primer tray clean and well oiled. And IF/WHEN you spill powder go ahead and clean it ALL up right then, it gets in places where it does not belong and causes sticking and malfunctions etc...

In fact, most often I deprime, resize, and prime all my brass. Then I do a second run of powder and bullet seating etc...

Just my two cents...and it probably isn't even worth that!

It did come with the powder measure.

Wait a min..... no powder thrower?~??

 

[Beladran]

OOps thought you said didn't

I use SGMJody's hornady progressive. When it's adjusted right, it's a dream to run. We also resize and prime before putting them through the press.

Are you going to sell your old stuff?

Hammer- I've been very pleased with my LNLAP. Get a powder cop die to help watch the charges.

That's a negative.

need a report and pics when you get set up, looking at the same setup for myself

 

[Hammer]

Setup was easy. Got it bolted down to bench, got powder measure installed. Tip tho, get the powder thru expanders from hornady to use with this setup. The regular powder thru exp. wont work.
It is not a necessity, as you have 5 stations. But it would free up a station for something else. I am going to get some of these myself. Most of press was together, other than setting up powder measure.

Got some cast 9 mm bullets lubing now so I can give it a try.

 

[miker84]

Make sure to completely break down the powder measure and clean it thoroughly before using. Also, the micrometer adjusters for the powder measure work better than what comes on it.

SGMJody expands at one station then charges with the next.

It's also easiest to set your powder measure on a stand, then when you have it adjusted properly, mount it on the press.
