What's the difference between this and the $40 version (Lee Precision Turret Press Safety Prime Up/Kit)? I'll be buying for my Classic Turret.

The $40 version is an UPDATE KIT to bring a pre 2006 turret kit up to present day safety standards. You do not need it if your Classic Turret Press is 2006 or later. A 2006 or later only needs the Lee Precision Safety Primer feed, which is only $ 25.99. If your press is older than 2006 you will need the update kit. NOTE... You will need an Auto Disc Riser no matter which primer you use!!!!!

I'm not sure what is included in the Lee Precision Turret Press Safety Prime Up/Kit). I can tell you that I used this kit on my Classic Turret with no problems. If you use the Powder Disc Measure then you need the raiser as well because the primer holder will interfere.

Do yourself a favor and get a Talon Grip. I've tried them all and for $18 Talons Rubber Grip is Tops in my Opinion. I have them on 5 of mine. Easy to install, Tuff as Nails and Last forever. Seems the Rubber Slip-on Grips last a couple hundred rounds then split or tear. Hope this Helps.

The 'newer' model has target knobs on it that are exposed with no covers. The 'old' model has caps that screw on over the adjustment turrets. I'd stick with the old model. Once a scope is set, I generally don't mess with the turrets. Exposed turrets could be tweaked or changed unintentionally.

I wouldn't recommend using this press. I decapped exactly 42 32 winchester special cases and it broke the brand new press right off the base. I recommend the LEE BREECHLOCK CHALLENGER. I bought the press only for about $70. Works great.

This one comes with the replacement arm for the older Lee Press. If you have a newer Lee Turrent Press go wirh the $26 dollar version.

Yes, i also own a lee classic turret press and I have one for each caliber die set so that I only need to adjust once and just swap turrets when changing calibers

I have been reloading sine the early 1970s and I use nothing but Lee die sets. For straight wall pistol cases I always get the Lee 4 die set. It might cost a few dollar more, but you get a lot more. If you work reasonably (and what reloader doesn't ) the Lee 4 die set will last you a life time.

Michael this is great deal i recommend second set of dies either 9mm or 45acp and the digital scale not wrong with the scale that comes with kit 2.auto indexer again nothing wrong the kit. You made a excellent choice I'm about 1500 rounds in you don't save money you just shot more....tumbler kit with shells and polish and a plug in timer for cleaning brass i have to reload 4500 rounds to break even after that its .20 to .25 cents to reload .45acp about hope this help check your states shooting club website like mdshooters.com tons of information from people with tons of knowledge and know how

Yes the press has the attachment for both small and large primers. I would also invest in the lee precision safety primer feed. (it saves a lot of time after you figure out how to work it)

To use 4 hole turret you have to comvert the press. I did mine a few years ago. Easy to do with the kit

YES. I bought the press with the 9mm dies. I later ordered the 223 dies off of amazon and also a turret to keep them mounted in. The nice thing about these presses is the fact the turrets just pop out so all of your dies stay intact once their setup. For $15, it's worth buying an extra turret when you buy your extra dies. This reloader will work with MANY different calibers from small to large. Hope this helps, I love mine. P.S. there are a lot of detailed short videos on YOUTUBE, that will make the setup A BREEZE! People complain about primer feeds and other stuff, Its just common sense to keep everything clean and pay attention to how it works. And you won't have any problems. I have had none. YES.

The bore of the feed die is closely sized for the .358 diameter bullet for the 9mm cartridge and won't allow the .40 bullet. Use Lee p/n 90896 for your .40 for bullets up to .65" long, and p/n 90897 for bullets up to .80" long. NOW, if you try to use the kit for up to .80" bullets to load short bullets, each time the feed fingers pull out a bullet, you will get a dozen or so in the floor due to the extra clearance in the feed die for the taller/longer bullet. Buy a kit for the bullets you use most, then buy the feed die and finger kit for the other bullet length, which costs about half the price of the complete feeder kit. I have several fingers for my 9mm feeder and Loadmaster press, and it works well.

Perfect kit for the beginner because it does everything the single stage press will do and gives you room to easily grow and expand. I'm pretty sure there were a few things I bought extra but I'm trying to remember what they were. I think there was an extension I bought for the auto powder part. I also bought an extra turret so I could have one setup for 5.56 and one for 9mm. A digital scale is a good idea. The only other thing I can recommend is an additional reloading manual. I bought the Hornady manual. Good luck and have fun!

These are for the hand-held Lee Auto Prime tools, old and new. The Safety Prime is a mechanism that feeds primers to the shells as they are cycled through the press. The Safety Prime does not hold the case and has no need, or place for, shell holders of any kind.Now, the top of the ram on the press uses another shell holder that functions to hold the shell through all operations in the reloading process. The shell holders that work in the hand-held Auto Prime tools are flat on the bottom. The shell holders for the reloading ram have a raised collar on the underside that lock into a slot at the top of that ram. These are for the hand-held Lee Auto Prime tools, old and new.

One of the reasons for paying extra for the BDC is to not have to turn and either count or look at the clicks on the turrets. There is also a model with a smaller objective lens. The smaller the objective, the lower the light gathering. I set up mine with an American made Weaver look through mount set up specifically for my pre 1985 Ruger 10/22. No need for rails and sighting took one shot, and that was only to move the POI two MOA.

No...I purchased this item to attach to a Lee Turret Press (3-hole). The Primer seating assy that attaches to the ram comes with the press. If you do not have it, you will need to purchase the set of 2 (For large and small primers).

If you plan on doing the whole reloading operation on that one press, then you should only need just the one she'll holder. I myself use an RCBS press for everything except the priming operation. I use a Lee auto primer for that, so I need an RCBS, and a Lee shell holder.
