HORNADY Lock-N-Load Pistol Micro Adjustment Screw | #050129

Precise Micrometer Metering Insert for Handgun Loadings Finely adjustable powder metering with reproducible micrometer values The HORNADY Lock-N-Load Handgun Micrometer Adjustment Screw is a precise metering insert for the Hornady Lock-N-Load powder measure, specially designed for metering smaller powder charges in handgun loadings. The integrated micrometer scale allows for finely traceable adjustments and makes it easier to document already determined values for different loadings and reset them later. This gives the 050129 a functional advantage over a conventional standard adjustment screw, especially with frequent loading changes. In combination with the suitable Hornady handgun rotor, the system enables controlled metering of small charge amounts. The intended metering range is approximately 0.5 to 17 grains. Thanks to the Lock-N-Load quick-change principle, the metering insert can be comfortably swapped, allowing various settings to be efficiently integrated into the existing reloading process. For using the micrometer adjustment screw, the matching pistol rotor and the corresponding standard metering unit are required. The Hornady 050129 is therefore aimed especially at reloaders who process different handgun loadings and value finely graduated, traceable, and reproducible settings of their powder measure. The micrometer adjustment serves as a reference for metering; the actual dispensed powder amount must always be checked with a suitable powder scale before use.
