Customer Questions & Answers
-
Question:
What is included in the package?
Answer: The package includes the case activated powder drop and a product manual. -
Question:
Can it be used with any progressive presses?
Answer: Yes, it can be used with Lock-N-Load AP or other presses that use 7/8X14 threads. -
Question:
Does it dispense powder charge accurately?
Answer: Yes, the case activated powder drop only dispenses a powder charge when a case is present. -
Question:
Does it come with either a pistol or rifle metering assembly?
Answer: No, it's only the lower linkage. It is wise to have if you want fast changes for pistol cartridges or for rifle. -
Question:
Has anybody attached this to a Lee Loadmaster?
Answer: Yes, it works great on the Loadmaster. -
Question:
Will this work with the Hornady Lock-N-Load Classic Single Stage Press?
Answer: Yes, it has the same threads as your other dies and the case moving up inside the powder drop activates the linkage. -
Question:
Does this include the threaded part that threads into the powder measure tube?
Answer: No, it includes everything but the powder measure itself. The part that attaches to the measure is not the same as the drop tube that comes with the powder measure. -
Question:
Will it work with RCBS Uniflow measure?
Answer: Some users have had success with RCBS Uniflow measures, but it's recommended to use the same manufacturer for compatibility. -
Question:
Will this work with a Lee powder thru die?
Answer: No, it will not work with the Lee powder thru die as it relies on the upward motion of the press. -
Question:
Does this come with the quick change powder die?
Answer: No, the bushing to mount the powder drop into your lock n load progressive press does not come with the powder drop. -
Question:
Will this work on a Lyman 8 turret press?
Answer: It should work as long as it can thread into the turret and the ram lifts the casing up. However, you will need both parts. -
Question:
Will this work for magnum rifle cartridges?
Answer: It should work for any cartridge that will fit in a standard long action rifle. -
Question:
Is this for Lyman T-Mag 2 press?
Answer: No, it is designed for use on Hornady's Powder drop assembly and would not be useful for the Lyman T-Mag 2 press.
Hornady Gunsmithing Tools Editorial Review
The Hornady 050073 Case Activated Powder Drop is a lower assembly that allows for fast changes in pistol cartridges and rifle cartridges. It is cheaper than buying an entire powder measure and works well with the Hornady Lock-N-Load Classic Single Stage Press. However, it does not include the powder measure itself. Customers have had success using it with RCBS products and Lee Loadmaster, but it may not work with Lee powder thru die or Lyman T-Mag 2 press. Overall, it is a reliable and useful product for automating powder drops.
