Hornady 480052 One Shot Spray Bar Size Large Rifle Mag Steel
The Hornady One Shot Spray Bar in Large Rifle Magnum size is a reloading accessory designed to speed up and simplify case lubrication during the reloading process. If you're processing rifle or magnum cartridges and want to move faster through prep work without the mess, this spray bar attachment works with Hornady One Shot Case Lube to coat multiple cases uniformly in one step. It holds up to 25 cases at a time, making it a practical addition to any serious reloader's bench.
The design focuses on even coverage and efficiency. The angled layout positions cases to maximize their exposure to the spray, reducing dry spots and the need for touch-ups. Internal steps inside each hole let you load a range of case sizes without fussing with different trays for different calibers—useful if you're working with both standard and magnum rounds. The bottom-drilled holes are a smart detail: they let lubricant drain rather than pool, which keeps things cleaner and prevents waste.
Hornady's One Shot system has been a workhorse for handloaders who want to avoid the mess of traditional case lube while keeping prep time short. This spray bar version cuts another step out of the workflow, letting you lubricate in batch rather than case by case. Steel construction keeps it durable through thousands of cycles, and the large-rifle-magnum sizing makes it the right choice if you're primarily loading those cartridge families.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers does this spray bar fit?
This Large Rifle Magnum spray bar is designed for rifle and magnum cartridges. The internal step design accommodates a range of case sizes within that category, though large rifle and magnum rounds are the primary fit.
Do I need Hornady One Shot Case Lube to use this spray bar?
Yes, this spray bar is designed to work with Hornady One Shot Case Lube, which comes in its own spray applicator. The bar holds your cases while you apply the lube evenly across multiple rounds at once.
How many cases can I lubricate at one time?
The spray bar holds up to 25 cartridge cases, so you can lube an entire batch in a single pass rather than processing them one or two at a time.
Will this prevent lubricant from making a mess on my reloading bench?
The bottom-drilled holes let excess lubricant drain out and prevent pooling, which keeps waste down and makes cleanup easier compared to solid trays. You'll still want a mat or tray underneath to catch the runoff.
