With a high-torque 110-volt electric motor and extra-large case bowl, the Automatic Case Feeder transforms your Lock-N-Load AP into a fully automatic press. It will handle four-times the cases of most other auto feeders, and it feeds every cartridge that fits standard Hornady shell plates. Fits your existing AP press. Easy to assemble, it works with four different case feeder plates (sold separately).
Bought this for use on a Lock and Load press. The instructions are not real good. Once you get it figured out it does work well. Lots of small parts to change when changing calibers. If you load 40 S&W do not use the small case plate. It won't work-use the large plate and it works perfect all the time. I know you can put more than 200 45 acp cases in it at one time and it does not even slow down. Overall it really increased me loading speed.
The case feeder works like a champ. Great addition to the hornady progressive press. Takes a little work to get it setup & dialed in but it's worth the effort.
This is a must have if you have the LnL. I wouldn't overload the hopper with brass but it easily holds enough rounds for an hour or so. Went together easy and with no issues.
I would just include the cost of the case feeder into the press because you will buy it anyway. No need to set the press up and then have to change it around.
