I have been reloading for many years on a single stage press and finally decided on going progressive for pistol. I have spent the morning watching the video cd that came with my new Hornady LNL AP press and setting it up. However I have a few questions that don't seem to be explained in the video or instruction booklet. I'm hoping that I can get answers on this wonderful forum (I've been a lurcker for a long time). Here they are:
1. The video shows using an ejector wire on the shellplate but mine didn't come with one. I assume the new EZ eject system does not use an ejector wire. Am I correct on this?
2. I set up the powder measure with the pistol rotor and metering assembly but am confused as to which powder bushings to use. I will be reloading 9mm, .38/.357, .44 and .45ACP. The unit comes with 3 different powder bushings that drop in the powder drop tube but nothing describes when to use which.
3. Lastly, the unit came with a PTX Powder Measure Stop but doesn't explain what its for and what I do with it. Can someone enlighten me?
