Overview
Designed for reloaders who want faster die changes without giving up a secure setup, this bushing system is made to work with Hornady Lock-N-Load presses and presses fitted with the Lock-N-Load Conversion Bushing Kit. It accepts standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies and lets you swap them with a quarter-turn, which can streamline time at the bench when moving between loads or steps in the process. When dies are locked in place before removal, the setup is intended to preserve those settings for reinstallation. This package includes three bushings, making it a practical add-on for organized, repeatable reloading sessions.

- Compatible only with Hornady Lock-N-Load presses or presses fitted with the Lock-N-Load Conversion Bushing Kit, so it is not a universal solution for every reloading setup.
- The package includes three bushings, which is practical for a small number of dies but may not cover a larger die set without additional bushings.
- It is designed for standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies, so dies outside that thread pattern are not supported.
- The product includes a California Proposition 65 warning for lead exposure, which is an important handling consideration for reloaders.
