This machine is able to load small pistol (.380) to larger rifle (.338 Lap mag) rounds on the same machine with an intuitive changeover. If you are looking for one loader that will accomplish all your loading needs, the Alpha L-250 is it. This workhorse loader incorporates a split ram/tooling head, stationary powder drops, adjustable stroke mechanical drive system and touch screen automated controls. The quality control that is built into each machine helps eliminate most ammo that is defective, through the automatic reject system. This machine is still competitively priced to fit a new startup or the largest of operations.
