Lee Classic Turret Does It All

.....The Lee Classic Turret will load pretty much anything short of a .50BMG

Um...not really...according to the Lee website:

"Deactivate the Auto-Index and cases as long as the monster 50 BMG can be loaded"

Also, I agree that the instruction manual could be a little more informative, but, Lee makes up for it with all the setup videos on their website. I would highly recommend watching these before you set up the press or try your first reloads.

Um... yes really... just try to find a 50 BMG die set that will fit in the lee turret's 7/8" holes. Heck, just try to find ANY cartridge with same or larger OAL that doesn't also need dies that won't fit.

It's a shame, since all they need to do is come out with a replacement top plate/ring that bolts on and takes a single large die (no revolving turret plate).

Somehow Lee does not find that ad misleading...

Darn It!!!!

So much for my argument about buying a 50BMG "because I have the reloading equipment already"

Seriously, unless there's some huge adapter that replaces the turret, how CAN they claim that????
