LNL arrived Friday and I've started putting this together. Have to go get some brake cleaner to get the oil off the powder drop parts and dies. Suggestions for this welcome as well.
Questions for Hornady LNL owners....
1. How much room to set up to either side of press/where to position on bench? I have seen Dillons where the operation was "two sided" as the left hand fed a case and the right hand placed a bullet (? it has been a while). The LNL appears to be a left-sided operation for case and bullet placement. What's your preferred press operation? Can I favor the right side of the bench for press placement? Bench is my workbench that is getting reloading as a new duty.
2. What's the preferred die/powder drop placement in stations 1 through 5? I don't have specific taper dies or a powder cop (yet). The instructions are not very specific here since the 5 available stations give more flexibility.
3. What do you do for primer monitoring? Small wood dowel? Buy a Dillon alarm? I saw the recent post on the shotgun shell gizmo with Radio Shack buzzer. Not sure I'm capable of rigging my own alarm.
Damn this looks like fun! Giggidy Giggidy!
Thanks in advance!
