The Hornady Lock-N-Load Classic Kit (Hornady part no. 085003) is a complete starter setup for reloaders getting into the hobby, or for anyone who wants a proven single-stage bench without piecing components together one at a time. Its cast-alloy frame uses an O-ring design with angled frame bushings for quick die changes, an easy-grip handle, and a positive priming system that includes both small and large primer cups. Because of its build quality and construction, the kit is backed by Hornady’s company lifetime warranty, and it ships with the Ninth Edition Hornady Handbook of Cartridge Reloading so new handloaders have reliable load data on hand from day one.
