Hornady Lock-N-Load AP Large Cartridge Catcher - High Capacity Reloading Accessory
The Hornady Lock-N-Load AP Large Cartridge Catcher is a high-capacity brass collection accessory designed to work with the Hornady Lock-N-Load AP Progressive Press. If you're running serious reloading volume, this upgrade tackles one of the workflow friction points: stopping frequently to empty a standard catcher. This larger unit collects up to one-third more loaded rounds before it needs to be emptied, which means fewer interruptions during extended reloading sessions and a real productivity boost when you're pushing through hundreds of rounds.
Reloaders working high-volume loads know that small ergonomic wins add up fast. A catcher that holds more means you stay in rhythm longer—no fumbling to swap containers mid-session or losing your place in your loading sequence. For dedicated progressive press operators who measure their output in thousands of rounds per year, the capacity upgrade pays for itself in saved time and focus.
This is a straightforward, proven accessory: it bolts onto your existing Lock-N-Load AP setup and immediately extends how long you can run before emptying. If you've maxed out your standard catcher or find yourself constantly stopping to clear it, this is the practical next step.
