This Hornady Lock-N-Load A.P. Loader is a five-station auto progressive ammunition reloading press designed for high-volume cartridge production. The unit features a heavy-duty red-finished frame and utilizes the proprietary Lock-N-Load quick-change bushing system which allows for rapid caliber change-overs. Technical specifications include a five-station die platform, automatic indexing that advances cases 1/10th of a rotation at a time, and an integrated automatic priming system. The press is equipped with a case-activated powder drop and an innovative ejection system designed for reliable operation across a wide range of calibers from .25 Auto to .45-70. Key markings on the packaging include the red H Hornady logo with the motto Accurate. Deadly. Dependable. and the model designation Lock-N-Load A.P. LOADER. The item is contained within its original color-illustrated retail box which remains sealed in factory plastic shrink wrap. Several small white adhesive inventory stickers bearing the number 78592 are affixed to the exterior of the plastic wrap.

The item appears to be in new-old-stock condition, still sealed in the original factory plastic shrink wrap. The exterior retail box shows minor signs of shelf wear and light compression under the shrink wrap but remains structurally sound with vibrant graphics. The internal components are assumed to be in factory-new condition as the seal is unbroken. We have not unpacked or function-tested this mechanical press.
