I've owned a lot of presses of both styles over the years and still have my Rock Chucker.

I checked Ebay prices on the Holly Wood Gun Shop turret press....big bucks these days wish I had kept mine so I could sell it now.

I've never used a turret press but am interested in a T7.

I used a rockchucker for many years and no complaints. Switched to a Forster press about 7 years ago because they are said to produce straighter ammo. I do love the press and the shellholder assembly is really nice, but I haven't been able to produce any better ammo than I did with my Rockchucker.

Quality dies and proper set up are more important to production of better ammo IMHO.

I read an article a while back. It's been long enough I don't remember the shooter or the class but in the early 2000's a national champion won while using the T7 to do his reloading. I use to setup dies and never have to set them up again. Keeps consistency and saves a lot of time of resetting and remeasuring everything.
