    Congrats on the find.

    So, they made these in aluminum too or are all Super Turrets aluminum.

    I'm always looking for Hollywood presses and powder measures to add to my already cluttered bench. Haven't been quite as fortunate as you. YET...

    Congrats on a great score.

    Good score on your Hollywood Super turret, you have the -- 8th -- known Super Turret that I am aware of.

    Good luck

    Again, do all Super Turrets have an aluminum base? I saw something exactly like this before I knew there was such a thing as a Super Turret but the base was steel judging by a light coat of rust on it.

    Thanks .50bmg. Good to know. And congrats again on your find. I think that being in in SoCal gives us a unique opportunity and maybe advantage in finding some of these old reloaders. Have you dug into the history of the reloading machine industry as it relates to Hollywood, Star, etc?"

    You're killing me. And, possibly my keyboard as my saliva drips (drools) into it. Here I sit less than an hours drive away from where the Hollywood reloading equipment was manufactured and all I have to show for it is a little Hollywood single stage press and bit of an assortment of swaging dies.

    Not to worry. Here's one you can add to your collection and help fund Cast Boolits at the same time.

    50BMG, I was actually thinking of just the "SUPER". That and the "METALLIC" reloaders are the rarest of rare. Below are some pix of what is awaiting assembly, along with 6000# of Hollywood parts.

ID:	148956Almost forgot my 50BMG Powder Measure. This beast weighs about 50 pounds. To the best of my knowledge, this never went into production.
