Description

Hornady Micrometer Pistol Insert 050129

For precise measurements, the micrometer inserts allow the user to make and monitor incremental changes and return to previous settings.


The Hornady Micrometer Pistol Insert #050129 is a precision upgrade for the Lock-N-Load® Powder Measure, designed specifically for accurate, repeatable handgun powder charges.

It replaces the standard metering insert with a micrometer-adjustable system, allowing reloaders to dial in exact powder charges and return to previous settings with ease—a major advantage when developing or switching between loads.
