Hello all,
I recently acquired a Hornady Pro-jector press. I already have a Pro-7 and am very familiar with its operation. However, included in the press was an old version of Hornady's manual drum powder measure. Seemed straight forward enough, metering inserts held by set screw but other than that functioned just like the new LNL measure. What puzzled me was a few extra parts that were supposed to be for an old auto drop function for the press/measure. I will include photos of it partially assembled, but it looks like two rods with an articulating joint composed of a ball and cup, a spring for return, center post plate and arm for the drum. I cannot find any literature or photos of such a system, even tried looking for pacific brand products. Does anyone have a clue how this works and what parts are involved?
