Quote from Reloader on May 15, 2013, 10:29 pmAfter struggling for months with a new Hornady Ammo Plant I cut my losses and sold it last week, the same day I picked up a new XL-650 from a dealer. I couldnt be happier with my quality purchase that actually works out of the box!
I am a motorcylce tech by trade, have a pretty thorough understanding of mechanics, I realize that some mechanical skills are required with reloading and equipment setup. In my opinion the Hornady LnL AP is not a proven setup, the customer is basically left to do the rearch and improvements for Hornady and that is very sad! I constantly has small issues, any traces of power beneath the shell plate would affect the primer feed along with plate indexing. The case feeder opening was off to one side allowing for cases to fall in behind the switch area, the shut off micro switch broke in under 500 rounds and the list goes on!
Anyhow, to all you onlookers, dont waste a dime of your hard earned cash on a Hornady LnL AP, the frustarions are NOT worth it, I wish I have of bought the best first. Thanks Dillon!
