    I saw that this morning. Rick Kalish has it listed. I've bought a lot of reloading "stuff" from him over the years. I don't know where he comes up with his items for sale, but he finds some good equipment.

    He is very close to me. I will be bidding on this, even though it is woefully incomplete.

    Woefully ??? Really ?? Not sure I agree, or understand the use of that adverb here. The original turret handles are missing and also the swage bar set. Other than that, It looks like an easily restorable press. Just my $0.02 !!

    As well as the main handle.

    And, yes, I can restore it to its former glory.

    The press handle is included. Check sellers comments.

    The bidding seems to be following the same pattern as before except there are some new faces. The bidding has stalled at about $3k a few days before closing. Anyone want to predict the selling price?

    $5000, which is more than I am willing to bid.

    I wish I had a garage full of those. I'd be able to buy a new truck!

    Yes, but that one isn't a Super Turret.

    looks similar enough in the pics.. like i said i know nothing about these and has to be some nostalgic thing because you can build a hell of an ammo factory for that kinda money or just straight ammo i dont even own a dillon mainly because im cheap...

    Mica, The second link is of a Hollywood Turret Tool. The first link is "THE" Hollywood Super Turret. It is one of the rare ( limited production ) presses that Hollywood Gun Shop produced. It is not being purchased , or bid on, to reload ammo. It is looked at as a collectors item. The value is in its rarity. The last one, in this condition, sold for $5453 on eBay. Who knows what this one will go for.

    I'm still trying to get the different Hollywood models figured out myself. Lots of variations, as you know.

    There is probably a list of the family of Hollywood presses out there. Maybe someone knows?

    Thankyou for clearing that up. I assumed it had to be a collector deal...

    Grasslander,

    There are many models, however, most are built on two variations only. The Super and Turret Tool are all built on a similar design as the universal series of presses. The Metallic Automatic and the Shotgun automatic presses are built on the Senior frame, with other such presses as the Senior Turret and the Senior ( single stage ).
