OK fellows need your help again. I have a Redding shotshell press. It looks like a turret press and is set up for 12 ga. It has a stand with another turret that is set up for 28 ga. Turrets appear to change easily???? I didn't know redding made a shotshell press. Any info you could share would be greatly appreciated. When made? Usability? Common? Value? Accuracy?
Will try to get pictures when I can.
Thanks in advance
Doug

What You have is a Redding Model 32 . I have one with 4 turrets Very Good machine. > If you call Redding They still have bushings for Sale . . I purchased several To round Out Mine. . They do not Have a lot But They have some. . If you ask for a Bushing Chart They have that to.. Are those the original powder and shot Tubes.. You don't see them That Often . But they Load very well. Single stage Just Rotate the Turret
Redding Made One and savage made One They were In competition. Both Now are Obsolete

Thanks for the info sal and 380 I agree. It is well made but then that is what you expect from Redding. Didn't even know Redding made one. Probably list in auction (here) as I don't have a clue what it is worth. I don't have enough time to load for my Contenders so I know I won't be using it
Thanks

All of the Redding stuff is very well made. I started with this Redding shotshell press in the late 60's. It has dies and bushings for 12,20 and .410 gauge shells. I don't use it any more as I have progressive Mecs in 12 and 20 ga. I did load many thousands of rounds on that press!
