Never thought I'd want a 45LC...but that is simply "classy"

I own and use the classic turret press, and I find it interesting reading how some say it is "no faster than a single stage press". That is absolute bunk.... It is much, much easier/faster to load a couple hundred rounds than anybody with a single stage press. If you are having trouble with it indexing, you haven't set it up properly....if you are having trouble with it priming, you haven't set it up properly.
If you can read, and are willing to follow directions, you will be delighted. If you can't read, or ignore directions from the manufacturer, you will probably be disappointed and sell it for 50 bucks. (and buy something else to bugger up)

Dan, I'm glad you found the press worked well for you. Nice looking Bisley, too!!

I've got the same Bisley, with Chapman grips on it. I should have a pic of it around here some where's.

I have been using my Lee Turret press for quite a number of years and really like it. I have loaded for 30-30,30-06,357.38, 44mag and 45acp. Its good in my book.
