    WTB - Used turret or single stage press

    Hey yall, I've got a buddy here on a tight budget looking to get into reloading. I've got some dies and powder/primers/bullets I can spare for him I just need a press to get him setup. I know I can get a lee turret kit, but thought I'd put out a feeler here to see if anyone has one collecting dust they wouldn't mind parting with for a bit cheaper.

    Please let me know, if not I'll take him over to Cabelas and get it sorted out there.

    Thanks Yall!

    I have a Lyman tmag2 that I have tried to sell here before, but keeps falling through on deals. How much are you looking to spend?

    I have a Lyman Orange Crusher or Lyman Spartan I can part w/. I know I have the primer cup for the Spartan. Not sure about priming parts for either. They've been sitting in my garage unused for years.

    I have an extra T7 press. Why not do it right the first time and get a first-rate press that will not break or fail and that you can be proud to own for a very long time. I'm not using it. Give me your best offer including shipping and I'll bet we can deal for just about the price of a new Lee turret.

    I think for ease of finding parts and replacements this would be my choice. PM incoming sir.

    Thanks yall I appreciate the response here! For a brand new reloader I just want to get him started on the addiction.

    Well if that doesn't pan out, I have a Cast Iron Bonanza single stage press I'd sell.

    Always tons of them on Ebay. Scored a Redding 7 holer for $185 (shipped) in March.

    I'm doing a little horse trading for the T7 offered above, that seems like a high quality piece of gear for a vet starting out reloading. Beats the heck out of my lee turret, but all it gets used for these days is sizing cast rounds. Thanks again yall, gonna mark this as closed. If it falls through I will PM someone for another try. Got a lot of good info and useful stuff from kind members on here starting out so i'm trying to pay it forward.
