Hornady Lock-N-Load Automatic Case Feeder Handgun Plate

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Automatic Case Feeder Handgun Plate is a precision reloading accessory engineered to streamline ammunition production for pistol and rifle cartridges. This interchangeable plate mounts directly to Hornady's Lock-N-Load system and automatically feeds cases into the press, eliminating the manual feeding process and accelerating batch reloading cycles for serious handloaders.

The handgun plate is configured to accommodate a broad spectrum of common and specialty cartridges, including 9mm Luger, 9×18 Makarov, .32 ACP, .32 Short and Long Colt, .32 S&W, 10mm Auto, .38 Special, .41 Magnum, .22 Remington, .256 Winchester Magnum, and .480 Ruger. Each caliber-specific cavity is precision-machined to match case dimensions, ensuring reliable feeding without jams or double-feeding. The plate weighs 1.55 lbs and integrates seamlessly with existing Lock-N-Load press setups, requiring only tool-free installation via the system's proprietary mounting interface.

This feeder plate addresses the reloading workflow challenge of case management during high-volume production runs. Competitors without automatic case feeding rely on hand-placement, which introduces variability, fatigue, and slower throughput. By automating the feed process, handloaders can maintain consistent press rhythm and concentrate on quality control rather than logistics. The Hornady Lock-N-Load system's modular design means this plate can be swapped for rifle plates or other accessories, making it economical for reloaders who work across multiple calibers.

Hornady's reloading equipment is recognized across commercial and law enforcement ammunition production environments for durability and precision. The Lock-N-Load platform has become an industry standard, backed by Hornady's commitment to quality control and support resources for serious reloaders seeking to maximize consistency and speed in their custom ammunition operations.
