Thank you SIR!! I bought myself the Hornady Classic reloading set as a late Christmas present last year, and I've just had the box in my bedroom while I searched for powder bullets and the unicorn: Primers. After a year I managed to find the right primers (I think) and decided to put everything together and see what its all about. Only then did I realize that being a completely new reloader, knowing nothing, that the documentation that comes with the classic kit is not even enough to call terrible. So, to youtube I go to learn about the pieces that arent immediately clear to me. and about 12 or 13 videos in, I find this Gem! I now understand how to dial in my powder measure and for that I thank you!

That was very informative and detailed about one of the most complex parts of this press. Your wisdom and knowledge on these things are greatly appreciated. Much mahalo. Btw your bench set up is like a Hornady wet dream.

Thanks for your coverage of the PTX. I'm going to order a couple. I also liked the idea of having multiple Case Activated Lower Assemblies. Subbed.

Thank you. I just bought a Hornady Bench Rest powder measure and the instructions were OK, but your video confirmed some questions I had. I like the fact you covered the Hornady Bench Rest powder measure first...helped a lot.

Very good info. After watching the video, I ordered the micrometer device and the drain tube. I also ordered the micrometer adjustment knob for the sizing die, which you mention in another video.

J Heimer That's great! You'll especially like the micrometer adjust for bullet seating, it is incredibly precise. If I need a bullet seated 5 thousandths deeper, turning the adjustment 5 thousandth gives me EXACTLY 5 thousandths. The micrometer for the powder measure makes it easy to get back to a specific powder charge later on. All you have to do is record the settings and powder type and voila! I'm sure you'll like them.

I really like your vids. Anyone who has a Hrnady can learn a lot. I just watched this after having mine for 11 yrs now. There were no youtube vids back then. Yours was a nice refresher, I actually forgort how I set mine up. It's been pumping out thousands of 9mm every year flawlessly. I will say, I used an aftermarket universal PTX from "Powder Funnels" who has since went out of business. While mine still works great, I'm wondering if it will wear out and what I will replace it with.

One thing you didn't mention in your description of the powder measure is the little metal plate bent into a "V" with two hole on the edges that fits in the bottom of the powder measure just above the rotor. My understanding is that it should be installed with the "V" pointed up, and that its purpose is to provide a constant weight of powder above the rotor to improve the consistency of each charge.BTW, just installed the microjust device, and it really does make it much easier to adjust the amount of powder being dispensed.

+J Heimer You're right, I did forget to mention that! But in my defense, my powder scale is 20 years old and back then they didn't come with those. Although I must admit, my bench-rest measure is newer and does have one. Thanks for reminding me. I hate it when I watch my videos after I upload them and think to myself, "Ack, I forgot this or that.", lol.

I have been told by two different people that they have trouble with the micro-adjustable metering insert moving while they are dropping powder. They told me their hand would bump the insert and rotate it throwing off their powder charge. Have you had any problems with this happening to you ? I have the Classic LNL package and have loaded a few thousand rounds on it, it is a very smooth great press that I really enjoy. I wanted to up grade to the bench rest powder measure but after hearing this remain unsure. Thanks for any information you can share. Really enjoy your channel.

what are the exact measurements on the 10'' board you cut for the powder measure and what type wod did you use.i have a hornady lock n load powder measure that has the rifle rotor but instead of having a separate pistol rotor it has a pistol metering assembly that fits the rifle rotor.i bought it as new.it came with everything but the box.someone said it was from the first design.do you know about what year this was.i have learned a lot from your videos.i mostly have hornady loading equipment but I have a lee classic cast breach lock press.that I love and can not seem to part with it.thanks for the videos.

New to reloading, just getting my feet wet. Been loading 9mm luger FMJ 124g for a couple of weeks now. Your video really helped me understand everything about the powder measure on my Hornady LNL progressive press. For some reason though I am having some residual powder getting on the shell plate which eventually fouls up the primer indexing slide and primer seat. Any suggestions on what could be causing this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for this video!!

Probably to prevent spills and wondering fasteners. I did my reloading bench without a lip but deliberately sloped so things dropped would wonder toward center. With dead level areas for bins and press attachment

Kenneth Gaydon Hi Kenneth, it came like that. Those are actually little plastic snaps that snap into place. It keeps the clear hopper from coming out at the worst possible moment, when it has powder in it. My powder measure is about 20 years old though so I'm not sure if the newer measures come with those.
