Turret press

#1 Post by matdoodson »

Hello,

I'm after a secondhand turret press. I'm very much enjoying the arbor press with Wilson dies, but I still need something to use with the body sizing die and will be reloading some cowboy rounds later in the year, so it makes sense to get something half decent. Open to suggestions...

Cheers,
Mat

Still on the lookout for a turret press if anyone is thinking of selling one.....?

Cheers,

Evening BamBam,

Thanks for the offer, but I'm only needing to full length size so I'm after a chunky old single stager really. 3 hole turret is more than I need, but a very reasonable price mind.

Cheers,
Mat

Yeah you got me... a Google / Wiki search and a lesson has been learned.

I always thought a turret press meant the lever, doofer up down number... turns out I should have specified from the off that I'm looking for a single stage press. Apologies for any confusion caused / time wasted.

That 3 hole lee would still suit though - let's you leave your dies set up when you want to switch calibre. I think you can still get the turret inserts.
