If I buy just the Lyman powder measure do i need anything with it so I can hook it onto my Lyman T-mag II turret press ?

it mounted right on my LEE turret press, nothing else needed, works awesome, throws almost perfect charges everytime, no leaks!

I am not 100% certain, as I've never used the T-Mag but I am pretty sure it will take a bushing in order to mount to the press. It does with the old Spar-T and with my Lee progressive loader.

The kit comes with a slide scale that converts each dippers respective cc measurement to grains for each type gun powder that you might use. I bought kit just as a way to double check my loads. I think it was worth it, although I've found I only use 2 or 3 of the dippers. This is probably because I only load 2 types of bullets. I guess its nice to have a good selection in case I start loading other types ammo.

The Lyman #55 powder measure comes equipped with three slides for adjusting the powder charge, with adjustments ranging from top slide use only for light pistol loads to use of all three slides for heavy rifle loads. The top two slides may be used for light rifle loads. So I would say in answer to your question that, no, this powder measure has all parts necessary to measure charges from light pistol to large rifle amounts.

Steve, like the others said, you will need the dies, the correct shellplate, and I would recommend another turret to make the change over easier. Both use small primers, so your primer feed should be ok, but you might need to get the small pro case feeder.

I load 9MM, 40S&W;, 308 Win, 270 Win, 30-06 Springfield, and 35 Rem. I plan on loading 45 ACP and 357 Mag when I get the dies. You're only limited by imagination, and of course dies and brass. The Lee Classic Turret Press serves me perfectly. Good luck...

Yes, the powder measure is included with a large cylinder and powder drop for rifle cases and a small cylinder and powder drop for pistol cases.

You might look in the 3rd edition of Lymans Cast Bullet Handbook to get your loads. I found loads there unavailable in the newer manual.

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

The loader should come with on already set up with the calibers you ordered. You only should need to by one.

Yes it does come with one. I, myself, load for 7 different cartridges so as I could, I'd purchase a turret for each caliber. I also have one for my "utility dies (universal de-capper, bulge buster, and a universal expander die.)This makes setup much nicer as once you have your dies adjusted the way you like, all you have to do is tighten down the lock rings and move your powder measure to whichever turret your loading. Changing calibers is a breeze. Just insert whichever turret is holding the dies that you'll be loading. I hope this helps.

Not sure with Lyman. Work with Lee and Hirnady, etc. I thought shell holders are all made to the same spec' s

Yes, it comes with the necessary hardware to mount this on the Lee Classic Turret Press.

Yes, this kit has all that you would need. The decapping die "sizing die" is included in this die set. You can tell which one it is because you will see a metal "pin" like protrusion coming from the bottom of the die. In addition, if you are new to reloading, I would highly recommend that you go to Lee Precision's website for instructional videos or you tube on how to safely reload. This is one area where mistakes can be quite unforgiving.

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.

You need .223 trimmer. You can get the lee one, it's a little rod that goes through the brass case that is measure to trim it universally to the right demensions. It's cheap and works well for casual reloading. Without a doubt a .223 case gauge and calipers. The case gauge is used to quickly check a resized case to see if it head space is good and whether the case needs to be trimmed. You can just take a quick look at a case in the gauge and then if it look like it's too long then trim it. It really speeds up the process. I don't know about hand washing cases. I would spend 40 bucks get a Frankfort tumbler and use some crush walnut shells and tumble your brass in there, so easy. Toss them in there let the tumbler run for some hours and they are clean. Lastly you need to lube your cases before you resize. Don't waste your time with the lube you need to run onto each case. Get hornady one shot spray lube. It comes in a aerosol can. What you do it place all your cases you are going to load in your one sitting (or however you prefer to reload) stand them each up on their base so the case mouth is pointing up. Spray the lube on an angle in each direction quickly and also into the sizing die. You will be all set. A lot quicker and less dirty. Trust me get that lube. As for dies. Get the lee .223 pacesetter die set. And you will also need a rifle charging die. It universal rifle charging die. And I believe the lee turret press come with an auto disk riser. But you need a riser for the charging die because the powder hoper will hit the primer feed. Get CCI small rifle primers and I use CFE-223 powder. And 55grain bullet fmj. I just reload for plinking so I don't care about accuracy. But everyone is different.

quite a few more items. At bare minimum you will need a set of caliber specific dies with a shell holder, a priming tool with a special shell holder, a powder scale, and of course powder, bullets, primers, case lube and a load guide. To be on the safe side, you should really invest in a quality dial caliper or micrometer for measuring case lengths, neck diameters and wall thickness. How familiar are you with reloading?

No, you don't need to lube the dies as long as the ones you're substituting are Carbide. Yes, as long as you replace the shell holder and dies, the actual turret is universal. You should look in to other pieces like the shell pusher, depending on the size difference.
