Re: Three progressive presses
Ian,
I have the Hornady also. I bought it used ($100.00) from a fellow shooter who didn't like it or realize what he had. He was going to use it for .270 Win, but couldn't get consistent ammo from it. The press needed adjusting to get the indexing and timing right and the dies needed to be disassembled and cleaned. He loaded less than 50 rds with it.
I have since used it to load several hundred .270's for a cousin's husband. It produced .5" hunting ammo using the 130gr NBT and H4831SC. That is definately DMOA! (Deer Minute of Angle) and it took approximately 45 minutes.
I use it mostly for pistol and revolver ammo now and it does a fine job. Just one thing; make sure you got plenty of components on hand before you start! Johnny K.
