Mounting Plate for Hornady Lock n Load Bullet Feeder

[HK SD9 Tactical]

Over at one of the untimate reloader, they have a write up for the bullet feeder. I do not see anywhere in the contents of the box or any instructions on how to mount the bullet feeder to the Lock n Load AP.

Is there a bracket that comes with the box or how does it mount to the AP?

Thanks

The Hornady Pistol Bullet Feeder doesn't mount to the press, it mounts to your bench. The product comes with 3 paper mounting templates (depending on your press) to give you a location on the bench to screw on the base, which lets the tubes reach the feed die properly. On the press you use the station just before your seating station to mount the feed die. The bullet feeder spring tubes run from the collator to the top of the feed die...that's the only connection to the press.

There are reviews of the Hornady Pistol Bullet Feeder on this site...just search "Hornady Bullet Feeder".

Mounting the RCBS Rifle bullet Feeder to the AP is another matter.....they say it can be done so I'd ask RCBS or Gavin at UltimateReloader.com On the RCBS Pro 2000, the feeder mechanism mounts to the Uniflow Powder Measure....I'd bet on the AP it mounts similarly. As to mounting on Dillons....it's supposed to...so a special conversion must be included or available.

Thinking about it I see why there is no attachment to the AP. Thats an awful lot of weight for the AP to support with the case feeder as well.

Thanks.
