I had a friend give me an old Hornady Pro-jector that's in good shape and I was hoping to get it set-up to load .45 acp and maybe .223. I've got almost everything but I'm not sure what I need as far as a powder measure. I've got a Lee Perfect Powder measure but it doesn't seem like the ideal set-up. Any suggestions for something that I could use now and use on a newer press when I upgrade? What other accessories will I need? I've got a Lee powder through/expander for the .45 will I need something like that for loading .223? Thanks | ||

I don't know nothin' about presses that can handle more than one case at a time. I'd look at the RCBS powder measure. Lots of people seem to like them. That, or the Dillon... | |||

I think homebrewer hit a home run with the RCBS uniflow powder measure. Pretty tough to beat. muck | |||

Hornady makes an auto dispense powder measure that fit on the projector..... call them and ask if they can fix you up 800-338-3220 /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

I'll suggest the Hornady powder measure with its case-activated powder drop. It's what's supplied with the the AP and is an excellent measure. Edit: You were too quick or me, Vapo. ________________________ "Every country has the government it deserves." - Joseph de Maistre | |||

I will vote for RCBS uniflow powder measure. I have one with small cylinder and one with the large cylinder. | |||

I don't know what the RCBS does that the Hornady rotary measure doesn't. The Hornady is a decent measure, especially with the powder baffle. | |||

Frankly nothing. I've used an rcbs uniflow and lil dandy, harrells, lee (a couple different styles) and several others that don't come to mind at this time. But I have no experience with Hornady's powder measures. Just stating my opinion based upon my experience. That is why I did not make mention of what I know not. muck | |||

I'm sure the RCBS is a fine measure, it just seems like it might simplify things going with a Hornady measure on a Hornady press. | |||
