Case Preparation with the Hornady Lineup of Case Prep Tools

Grand Island, NE – Hornady understands the importance of case prep in developing consistent reloads. Case prep includes trimming, resizing, cleaning, and deburring fired cases. Hornady offers a wide range of case prep tools available to produce high-quality brass consistently.

The Lock-N-Load® Power Case Prep Center is a one-stop solution to case prep. It features a micro-adjustable trimmer, powerful motor, metal shaving catch tray, and various case cleaning accessories. It takes up a minimal amount of bench space at a fraction of the size of other tools. In addition, the system is capable of handling a variety of cartridges with interchangeable shell holders. Included are large and small primer pocket cleaners, six-neck brushes, and an assortment of shell holders.

Hornady Digital Cases and Parts Dryer ensures brass and firearms parts are completely dry after sonic cleaning. It consists of four fixed trays and one tray with a removable mesh. There is plenty of room to dry cases and larger gun parts. Load the trays with cases, choose from one of the seven temperature settings, and select the desired time. Dry brass prevents oxidation from occurring and results in higher-quality reloads.

The Hornady® Neck Turn Tool offers a precise means of turning cases and optimizing reloads. It is capable of turning a variety of case lengths. The Neck Turn Tool includes four of the most popular mandrels, 22 Cal., 6mm, 6.5mm, and 30 Cal. Pairing it with a drill (not included) quickly and consistently trims each case neck to the proper thickness. The cutting head adjusts in .0005" increments with the detent system or removes the set screw for infinite adjustments. The result is optimized neck tension and more accurate reloads.

For a hands-on approach to case prep, the Lock-N-Load® Quick Change Hand Tool comes ready with various attachments. It is compatible with any tool with 8-32 threads, including chamfer, deburr, primer pocket reamers, cleaners, and brushes. The dual-sided chuck allows quick changeover between two tools by holding the release buttons. Additionally, the oversized handle features an ergonomic design to minimize fatigue during case preparation.
