    My Precious!!

    Well I finally took the plunge and bought a Lee Classic Cast Turret Press. I bought it in separate groups for a couple reasons. First the virus has caused a shortage of equipment because of panic buying and probably a slow down or stoppage in manufacturing. Second I didn't buy a kit because I already have much of what comes with it. I'm still waiting on a few pieces, but I can reload with it now it would just be a slow process. I should be reloading on it in about a week. It's good to join the turret press club.

    I load stuff from .380 up to 45-70, 43 Spanish, 11mm Werndl, and much in between. With few exceptions, the only press used for all of it. Simple, affordable, repeatable, accurate. I like it.

    I load 4 rifle calibers and five handgun calibers on mine. I have separate turrets set up for each caliber so all I need to do is switch turrets for a caliber change.
    The rifle calibers, I load single stage. I get accuracy under MOA at 200 yards consistently with my heavy barreled rifles.
    The handgun calibers produce 150 rounds an hour without hurrying.
    This press suits me just fine.

    Excellent choice of press!

    I load 17 calibres on mine with all dies sets set into their own turrets, which makes it a breeze to change calibres.
