Overview
This conversion bushing is designed for reloaders who want to use the Lock-N-Load System on a standard press with 1-1/4"-12 threads. It provides a straightforward way to adapt compatible presses from other manufacturers to Hornady Lock-N-Load die bushings. For hunters and serious handloaders building ammunition at the bench, it offers a practical upgrade path without replacing the press itself.
