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 compatible presses using the conversion bushing kit. It accepts standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies and lets you swap them with a quarter turn, which can help streamline repetitive bench work. The six-lug design is intended to hold dies firmly in place, and the setup is described as preserving die settings when dies are removed and reinstalled. This package includes 10 bushings, making it a practical option for shooters who keep multiple dies ready for regular use.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • 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 die-change solution.
  • Designed for standard 7/8"-14 threaded dies, which means it is limited to that common die format.
  • The package includes 10 bushings, which is useful for setting up multiple dies but may be more than some reloaders need for a single press setup.
  • The product is intended to preserve die settings when dies are removed and reinstalled, but that depends on the dies being locked in place before removal.
