excellent
By gofuyose
I'm not too sure what the other 2 people are talking about ....If you're a smart consumer, you don't just rely on one single picture to tell you what to buy ... that's the idiot's way to shop. If you're a smart consumer, you will do your research and price it out ...This press is excellent, and does everything you would want. The bushing system allows for a quick change between your resizing die, and bullet press die - and once you set it up and calibrate it to your specific bullet, you do not need to keep re-adjusting it every time you remove the die, unlike the other brands.Hornady makes great stuff, and will continue to make great stuff. 5 stars

I love this press!
By D. Matheny
I've been using the Hornady Lock-N-Load AP for several years; so, when I finally got some more space for a larger reloading bench, the Lock-N-Load Classic was an obvious choice as a companion to the Hornady progressive.At this point, I've only been using the Lock-N-Load Classic for a few weeks - but it has been an excellent addition to my reloading bench. Because it uses the same Hornady bushing system, it's like having an extension of my main press for doing smaller operations that don't work as well on the progressive.Some examples of things I use this press for include:1) When loading 9mm, I setup a bullet puller in the single-stage to help fix issues as they arise.2) It's easier to deprime and resize .223 brass with this instead of running the cases through the progressive. Then I can take care of trimming, primer pocket cleaning, etc... before loading the cases into the progressive to finish up.3) It works great for loading .308 and .300 BLK. With .308, I don't worry about volume as much as I worry about accuracy. A single stage press excels for those types of loads. On the .300 BLK, I spend time resizing each 5.56mm case down to .300 BLK and the single stage is excellent for that task as well.The reason I went with the Hornady single stage vs the other brands was mostly for the bushing system. I also like the option for a primer feed - although I haven't bought that add-on yet.Trust me, if you haven't used a reloading press before - the bushing system is an excellent innovation that you will definitely come to appreciate! The bushings basically let you setup dies once and then you can swap them in and out of the press without worrying about setting them up again. That's a huge time-saver, as well as being far more convenient!For users who are already using the Hornady bushings on the Lock-n-Load AP, I don't think there is any other logical choice for a single stage press.Overall, I would highly recommend this single stage press to anyone - whether you are a new reloader or are just getting this as a companion to an existing progressive!

I chucked an ancient RCBS in favor of the classic single, mostly because it has a bigger throat which is nicer when loading longer ammo like 300 win and 338's. It's a very good press, better than the 3 star rating i gave it, The removable bushings is a good idea, but sometimes when you wrench them into place with the die adjusting nut, it wants to stick to the bushing when you try to loosen the nut to adjust the die. In that case I am forced to resort to a slip-jaw pliers on the (very thin) edge of the bushing, admittedly not an elegant solution. My main bitch is the picture on the front shows the press with a primer tube and mount in place. It does not say "primer assy not included" so when I opened the box I assumed that it was ready to work. Wrong. I contacted Amazon (5plus star service) and they rushed me out a replacement machine-also without primer assembly. I'm sorry, but this is deceptive advertising. So finally I find a set on line and spend another $40 including shipping. I didn't get the progressive press because I already have a couple of Dillons, which are outstanding machines.
