ASSEMBLY: AP PRESS
Lock-N-Load® AP Reloading Press
OVERVIEW
Your new Lock-N-Load® Auto Progressive (AP) Reloading Press has been packaged to insure minimal vibration and damage during transportation.
Remove all the parts from the packing box (see page 2) and spread them out over a large flat surface. Refer to the Lock-N-Load® AP™ Reloading
Press parts list and exploded view on the next two pages and check to make sure all necessary parts are identified.
The manual provides step-by-step instructions and suggestions that make set-up and operation easy and understandable.
If at any time during operation you feel like you are forcing the press, stop and identify the problem. Do not force anything, or damage could occur. Powders and primers are explosive if handled carelessly! Always work slowly and carefully without distractions and wear eye protection. Try to avoid touching primers with oily fingers. The oil on your fingers may contaminate the primers and cause them to misfire.
Tools needed for assembly and set-up:
• 7⁄16" End Wrench
• (2) 1⁄2" End Wrenches
• 15⁄16" End Wrench
• 3⁄32" Hex Wrench (included)
• 1/8" Hex Wrench (included)
• 5⁄32" Hex Wrench
• Needle Nose Pliers
• Electric Drill
• 5/16" Hex Wrench
ASSEMBLY
Hand loading is very safe, but before reloading any case please read the following warnings.
• Primers may explode if subjected to impact or heat.
• Keep away from the opening end of the Primer Tube at all times.
• Variations may occur with different brands and condition of cartridge cases, which can cause inconsistent primer and bullet seating. Sort and inspect all of your cases before reloading.
• Verify your powder charges at frequent intervals to insure consistency.
• Careless or improper hand loading techniques can result in serious personal injury. Make sure there are no distractions while you are reloading.
• Before operating this press, be sure you have read and understand all the instructions contained in this manual, and that you understand the principals of hand loading.

ASSEMBLY: POWDER MEASURE
Operation of your Lock-N-Load® Auto Progressive Press
The Hornady Lock-N-Load® AP™ utilizes a high strength aluminum alloy frame with a compound linkage system which operates the 2" diameter cylindrical ram. The Ram houses a drive shaft that is attached to the shell plate at the upper end and the index wheel at the lower end. The toggle contains two spring actuated pawls which alternately engage the index wheel to advance the shell plate through the different reloading stations.
As the handle is lowered, the right Pawl contacts the Index Wheel, advancing the Shell Plate during the first 1 1/2" of upward travel of the Ram. With this upward travel, the cases become aligned with the dies at the top of the Press. As the Shell Plate comes to the top of the press, it guides the cartridge cases into the five die stations to perform the reloading operations except priming.
The handle is then raised to complete the stroke, lowering the Shell Plate. When the Shell Plate comes to within 1 3/4" of the bottom, the left Pawl engages the Index Wheel which advances the Shell Plate into position over the primer to seat it into the case that was just sized and de-primed. Pushing back on the handle with moderate force will seat the new primer into the case.
Once the dies are in place, and all stations are filled, the proper sequence for reloading is listed below.
®
• Place an empty case into station one. (Using the optional Lock-N-Load
AP™ Case Feeder, this step is
automatically done for you.)
®
• Insert bullet into the powder charged case in station four (or use the optional Lock-N-Load Bullet Feeder)
• Lower the handle.
• Powder drops into the newly primed case at station three.
• Raise the handle and seat a new primer in the de-primed case that has now moved to station two.
• Loaded cartridge is automatically ejected at station five when handle is raised.

Loading the Primer Tube
Carefully transfer the primers out of their factory package into a Hornady Primer Turning Plate and orientate them “shiny side up.” Then holding the Primer Filler Tube (large of small) like a pencil bring the plastic primer pick up tip over each primer and gently press it over the primers. The primers will be pushed into the filler tube one on top of another. Continue loading the primer filler tube until you have picked up approximately 100 primers.
Make sure the cotter pin is in place; turn the Primer Filler Tube upside down. At the top of the exposed Primer Filler Tube, there may be several primers still held and visible. Gently shake the tube to release the primers.
Align the Primer Filler Tube (large of small) to the Primer Feed Tube (large of small) using the Primer Tube Support. Remove the cotter pin from the Primer Filler Tube (large of small) and fill the Primer Feed Tube (large of small). The capacity of the primer tube is 100 primers.
Do not over fill the primer tube.
Insert the Primer Follower into the Primer Tube (large of small). This will help the primers feed more reliably.

OPERATION: AP PRESS
Preparing to Load
To begin reloading, start with a single empty cartridge case and run it through all of the loading stations. This will allow you to check your adjustments. Refer to instructions provided with the die set for set up and proper adjustment.
Sizing a case
• Make sure the sizing die is adjusted properly, and the de-priming pin knocks out the old primer.
Seating a primer
• Check and make sure the Primer Slide picked up a primer from the Primer Tube (large or small).
• When you cycle the press and the handle comes to a stop, you will have to push the handle away from you past the stop to seat the primer. Push until it stops but don’t force it. Seating the primer requires a firm push.
• Lower the handle of the press slowly to rotate the shell plate to start the next operation. If there is resistance on the shell plate, the primer is improperly seated and not allowing the Shell Plate to rotate.
Drop powder in the case using the case activated powder drop
• Verify the weight on a properly calibrated scale.
Seat a bullet in the powder charged case
• Begin lowering the handle to rotate the shell plate to this station.
• Place a bullet on top of the case and lower the handle the rest of the way. (You may need to position the bullet over the case neck between your thumb and forefinger until the bullet enters the alignment sleeve).
OPERATION
Station 5
• This station can be used for a Taper Crimp Die when reloading pistol cartridges that headspace off the case mouth.
* Any manufacturer’s Taper Crimp Die will work in Station 5 with the AP’s EZject™ System.
• Properly adjusted, a taper crimp die removes all case-flare from the expander die without damaging or squeezing into the bullet.
Next, lower the handle, advance the shell plate to the next station. The loaded round will rotate and contact the EZject™ System underneath the shell plate. This EZject™ System will automatically eject the loaded round from the press. Never force the handle. Measure the case for proper length and check it against the data in your reloading book.
Once you are satisfied with the first completed cartridge, repeat the process with another single case, advancing slowly from station to station until you eject the finished cartridge from the press with the case ejector.
After you are comfortable, load the press with consecutive cases for reloading. Do not rush! After you advance the cases through each station, inspect everything to insure proper function at each station. If anything looks out of place, or if you lose track of what you are doing, STOP! Remember, it’s safer to begin slowly than it is to assume you need to reload a large number of cartridges during each session. Don’t force the handle at any time, and be sure that all mechanical parts are properly lubed.
SAFETY NOTE: Be safe! Double check your powder loads at frequent intervals to insure the powder charge is working properly.

OPERATION
Adjusting the Auto Advance Mechanism
The Auto Advance Mechanism is fully adjusted at the Hornady factory and should not require further adjustment. In the event that you feel your shell plate is not advancing properly, check all other options listed in this manual before attempting to adjust the mechanism’s pawls.
All adjustments should be made in extremely small increments.
Through everyday use, the pawls on your press may gradually wear and may need to be adjusted to compensate for this wear. Before making adjustments, you should understand what each pawl does.
As the operating handle is lowered and raised through a complete cycle, each pawl in turn engages the index wheel at the bottom of the press. The index wheel is connected through the driveshaft to the shell plate. As each pawl engages the index wheel it advances the shell plate either at the top or bottom of the cycle.
The right pawl (as you face the press) advances the shell plate as the ram travels up when the handle is pulled down. The left pawl advances the wheel on the down stroke of the handle and should advance the shell plate to the detent holes in the sub-plate. If the shell plate doesn’t advance enough on the down stroke of the ram, only the left pawl needs adjustment.
The right pawl is too low if the shell plate stops short of the detent, which can be felt as you rotate the shell plate into place by hand in a clockwise direction. If the pawl is too high, you will feel a slight double click on the handle as the pawl disengages and the shell plate is locked into place by the detents.
Pawl Adjustment Screw
Left Pawl
Right Pawl
The same is true for the left pawl which indexes on the up stroke of the handle (down stroke of the ram.) Likewise, if the plate doesn’t advance far enough on the up stroke of the ram, only the right pawl needs to be adjusted. Don’t assume that both pawls need adjusting.
Do only one pawl at a time to keep from becoming confused.
The height of each pawl determines how far the shell plate will advance when that pawl comes in contact with the indexing wheel. To adjust the pawls, increase the height of the chosen pawl to increase the advancement of the shell plate in that direction. Or decrease the height of the pawl to decrease the shell plate advancement in that direction.
There is a set screw on each pawl.
• Turn the set screw clockwise to lower the pawl.
• Turn the set screw counterclockwise to raise the pawl.
Become familiar with these pawls from the onset and see how they operate. You will then find it much easier to adjust the pawls, should you need to do so in the future.

Refer to ASSEMBLY: AP PRESS Page 8 for instructions on removing and installing the Shell Plate
Determine the dies needed.
The Hornady Lock-N-Load® AP™ Press is designed to use Hornady dies as well as most other dies with a 7/8"-14 threaded body. However, the characteristics of each die is different and will determine the setup and capabilities of the press. For example, using the Hornady Pistol Taper Crimp/Seating Die will free up a station on the press so that a Powder Cop Die may be used. Please see the various layout options below to help locate your dies on the press.
Die Mounting Instructions
For initial die cleaning and individual die adjustment instructions, please refer to the instruction sheet that came with your die set.
Lock-N-Load® quick change bushing system
The Lock-N-Load® system is based on the positive locking action of the bolt action rifle. Just like the bolt action rifle, the locking action is incredibly strong and simple.
Once the dies and the powder measure are adjusted for loading, these settings are locked in place by tightening the Lock Ring
that is provided with all Hornady dies and powder measures.
How the Lock-N-Load® works:
• Insert the Lock-N-Load® bushing into the press and turn it clockwise to lock it in place.
• Adjust the die to the desired position and lock the setting in place with the die’s lock ring.
Once Lock-N-Load® bushings are installed, Dies and Powder Drop can be removed from the press with a quick counterclockwise turn. Since the Lock-N-Load® bushing is locked in place, the dies and the Powder Drop remain set exactly as you left them.
For added speed and convenience, Hornady offers inexpensive Quick Change Powder Dies for use with the Case Activated Powder Drop.

Setup / Changeover of Powder Measure
When changing cartridges, three components on the Powder Measure may need to be changed or verified.
• Powder type in the hopper.
• Metering Insert and/or Metering Rotor
• Powder Sleeve or PTX Expander
Emptying Powder in Hopper
NOTE: The Lock-N-Load® Powder Measure should be emptied of
all powder prior to storage. Prolonged exposure to powder may cause the plastic tube to become cloudy, discolored, or even brittle.
To remove powder from the Lock-N-Load® Powder Measure hopper, either use the Hornady Powder Measure Drain Insert (sold separately 050125) or remove the entire Powder Measure assembly from the press, remove the cap, and pour back into the original powder measure container. Cycle the rotor a few times while holding the powder measure over a container to remove the powder from the rotor. Finally remove the Metering Insert to inspect for any residual powder.
Changing Meter Insert and Rotor
The Lock-N-Load® Powder Measure ships with two sets of Rotors and Standard Inserts. The Pistol Rotor and Standard Insert are for powder charges from approximately 0.5 grains to 17 grains. The Rifle Rotor and Standard Insert are for powder charges from approximately 15 grains to 100 grains.
Additional inserts are available and sold separately to make change overs and reloading quicker and easier by storing the Metering Insert with the die set so minimal adjustments are needed when changing cartridges.
1
To change the insert, press the button on the side of the rotor. While pressing the button, pull and wiggle the Metering Insert out of the Rotor body. To install the new Metering Insert, press and hold the button on the side of the rotor, align the flats on the Metering Insert with the body of the Powder Measure, and press the insert into the Rotor. Verify the insert is fully inserted by firmly pulling on the Metering Insert.
NOTE: If there is powder in the hopper and the Metering Insert is on the bottom of the stroke, removing the Metering Insert will cause powder to empty out of the Powder Measure hopper and onto your work area.
If you are changing from a pistol cartridge to a rifle cartridge (or vice versa), you will need to change the Rotor in the Powder Measure.
2
To remove the Rotor, first remove the Metering Insert following the Instructions above. Next, remove the two screws from the side of the Rotor. Slide the Rotor out of the Powder Measure body.
Insert the correct Rotor by gently sliding it into the Powder
3
Measure body. The manufacturing tolerances are very tight on the both the rotor and Powder Measure body, so caution should be used to prevent causing damage to the either component. Insert the correct Metering Insert and reattach the linkage with the two screws.

Changing Powder Sleeve or PTX Expander
As a general rule, rifle cartridge cases will use either the #1 or #2 Powder Sleeve. Pistol cases will need to use the PTX sleeves when the Hornady Lock-N-Load® Bullet Feeder is being used. Otherwise the Universal Pistol Powder Sleeve will be used.
Refer to the chart below to select the proper Sleeve or Expander.
Remove spring, PTX Stop and loosen thumb screw.
Remove Powder Measure body from lower assembly.
Turn lower assembly over so powder sleeve drops out.
Replace with proper Powder Sleeve or PTX Expander.
Reverse steps above to reassemble.

Install the PTX Powder Measure Stop
The PTX Powder Measure Stop (item no. 290049) is designed to be used in conjunction with our PTX Expanders and the Case Activated Powder Drop. The PTX Powder Measure Stop serves as a way to precisely and positively stop the upward travel of the Lock-N-Load PTX Expanders to deliver consistently flared case mouths.
Make sure that the powder measure, using the Hornady
