The Case Activated Powder Drop helps make reloading faster
and easier than ever before. It automatically activates and
dispenses a charge with every pull of the handle, but only
when a case is present in the station. Plus, it works with
Lock-N-Load

®

bushings. (You can remove and change

Hornady powder measures with a quick turn, without
changing adjustments.)
The Case Activated Powder Drop
unit can be used ONLY on the Hornady Lock-N-Load

®

Powder

Measure.

The Lock-N-Load

®

Powder Measure comes with the Standard

Rotor & Standard Metering Insert installed, with the Pistol
Rotor & Pistol Metering Insert packaged separately.

Your Lock-N-Load

®

Powder Measure has been treated with

a rust preventative that must be removed prior to use. We
recommend that you clean and degrease all metal parts with
Hornady One Shot Cleaner and Dry Lube.

To Disassemble for Cleaning:

Slide the Rotor out of the Body by pressing gently on the
handle side of the Rotor.

NOTE: Be careful not to drop or otherwise damage the Rotor
while it is out of the Body.

Unscrew the Drop Tube (15) from the bottom of the
Powder Measure.

Remove the Handle, or Rotating Arm from the Powder
Measure, by removing the two attaching screws with a 1/8"
hex wrench.

Set the Rotor with the Metering Unit perpendicular to the axis
of the Body, press the Push Button and hold it down while
removing the Metering Unit.

NOTE: Do NOT remove push button. It is permanently installed
and does not need cleaning.
