HORN 462 Precision Powder Charge Bushing for Reloading
The Hornady 462 Precision Powder Charge Bushing is a drop-in component for reloaders using Hornady powder measures and progressive presses. This single bushing lets you fine-tune powder charges for different cartridges and load recipes without swapping entire measure assemblies—a real time-saver when you're working up loads across multiple calibers or switching between rifle and handgun ammunition. Whether you're assembling match rounds at the bench or running volume production on a progressive press, having the right bushing on hand means less downtime and more consistency across your batches.
Precision powder dispensing is the foundation of accurate reloading. The 462 bushing works within Hornady's established powder measure ecosystem, giving you repeatable, uniform charges that feed directly into case after case. It's a straightforward upgrade for anyone already invested in Hornady reloading gear—no learning curve, just drop it in and dial in your load.
Keep a few extra bushings in your reloading cabinet so you can pre-stage them for different powders or cartridge families. One bushing ships per order, so if you're managing several active load recipes, you may want multiples on hand to maximize your setup efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Hornady presses and powder measures does the 462 bushing fit?
The 462 bushing is designed for use with Hornady powder measures and progressive reloading presses that accept Hornady bushings. Verify compatibility with your specific press model before ordering.
Can I use multiple 462 bushings for different powder types?
Yes. Many reloaders keep several bushings pre-set for different powders or load recipes, allowing quick swaps without stopping to recalibrate. This is especially useful if you're staging loads for multiple cartridges.
Is this bushing included with a Hornady press, or sold separately?
This is a standalone bushing sold individually. It ships as a single unit per order, so consider ordering multiples if you manage several active reloading recipes.
