Anyone here use the Redding turrnt press

I have one and it produces great ammo at least as good as my Rock Chucker. Priming stinks on it, other than that, its fantastic.
My oldest son has one and loves it.

Great machine.I have one.My old Rock Chucker gets used for other things and I sold my Dillion 650 which to me,was a big PITA.I had a Lyman Classic Turret at one time but it was sloppy loose.It was way below Redding T-7 standards.Only possible problem with the T-7 is when you change over to another turret head.There is a little ball bearing that could fall off and get lost in the floor cracks or under the bench.I coat that with a heavy grease to keep it in place on it's spring while changing over.They are pricey but you'll never have a reason to get rid of it.
I bought one recently and love it. I've had and still have lots of good presses but the T7 is the best one in my book, I still have my Rock Chucker, I gave the jr away to a new a reloader for 25$ and gave my cousin a press and dies for Christmas, I hope he takes the time to use them. I have a pro 2000 its good if you want to make lots of ammo, I don't need it. I wish i would of bought the T7 when i started reloading it would of saved me a lot of money its the only one I need, I bought it on sale at Graf&Sons for $273 + 68.39 for a extra turret head.

Really happy with mine, super nice for load development not having to screw dies in and out&reset
I sure like mine. Only have 1 turret head for it and for what I do, can't see a need for others. Like kungfustyle mentioned earlier the priming system is less than impressive. I took it off and stashed it. I use a handheld primer for anything I load on this press.
I like mine. Quick and easy to change heads. And it is stout.
