When you purchase the Classic Turret, does it come with one of these? I'll be loading 2 calibers. I need to know if I need to buy one or two of these.

I do the same as Jummy. I believe mine came with two from kempf gun shop, if you are doing rifle they have an amazing kit with everything you will need. You also get a free set of dies. As for pistol, look into the lee pro disk adjustable charge bar, very accurate with most powders and no messing around with trying to find out what disk you need.

Yes it does, comes with all the things ya need. Good Luck & have fun reloading
1080252
Yes, it does. You don't actually need additional turrets - changing dies isn't that big of a deal - but it makes changing calibers more convenient.
1080253
The loader should come with on already set up with the calibers you ordered. You only should need to by one.
1080254
Yes it does. As you get into reloading you'll need more.... for instance I use one turret for my universal priming die so I can de-prime before I tumble to get the primer hole clean. This way you don't dirty your full length resizing die when de-priming. You can remove the rod and turn it into a single stage press.

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.

I honestly can't remember which model I have.... it's the Thumler that uses 2 barrels. This is the barrel that I got when I needed extra barrels. It is great; I have8 of them - 2 for each phase!

You must purchase it separately I would recommend a table top mounted one unless you reload only one or two calibers as I didn't think that far ahead...hope this helps you out

I didn't use a torque wrench to install it. I just used the crush washer and made sure the alignment for the top holes was correct. I have this brake installed on 2 ARs and both of them had different amounts of force to align them. I have shot several hundred rounds through each of them and neither brake shows any signs of movement.These are LOUD though so make sure anyone with you doesn't stand to the side. Directly behind doesn't seem to be too bad but you can really feel and hear the concussion if you are a couple of feet to either side.Of course, hearing protection is critical with this brake installed.On my rifles the muzzle barely moves and I can stay on target easily for follow up shots.Enjoy,Rick I didn't use a torque wrench to install it.

Leupold will make a custom bullet drop compensation turret for your exact load of .308. It costs like $60. I plan on having a turret made for my 6.5 Grendel.

No problem . Just use speed loader with four bullets . Great speed loader .

I agree with the last answer. Had to send mine back. Scope would not stay zeroed on a .300 win mag either. But to answer you question, no the turrets do not lock!

Are you sure that the switch in the turret is turned on? My instruction sheet was confusing, but there's a switch where the pellets go that turns the firing mechanism on and off.

Follow-up answer. My previous answer was not that I am aware of, but now after double checking my rifle and scope, it appears there is a small hex haed set screw on the side of the turret caps I had not noticed before. I am pretty sure by loosening that hexhead, the adjustment dials can be reset to where ever you want and re-titghtened. Theree may even have been a hex tool included with the scope, but that I honestly do not rewcall. I studied long and hard to find a scope I would be happy with for precision 22 bench shooting with my CZ452. Using a picattny, and quick detachable rings I found on Amazon, I am testing a variety of ammo brands and documenting which shoot the best out of the CZ. This scope is used prmairly indoors at 25 yrds due to the precison I am looking for and has me shooting 1 one 5 shot groups that only very because of my heartbeat which I can see in the scope movement and have to adjust for. I love this scope. Be forwarned. Never use the see thru covers to shopt through unless you saight in that way. I tested that and the zero changes drastrically with the covers even thiugh it still shoots tight groups. I plan on shooting steel at longer ranges 100-150 yrds this summer at a range we have that extensds out to 550 yrds. I would buy another one of these scopes in a heartbeat.

With this kit it is best to purchase: Lee pistol die set (9mm/.45) .You will need an extra 4 hole turret becuase once you get your dies set just right for one caliber you can simply change out the whole turret instead of each die and having to reset them.Of course primers, bullets, brass and powders.( Bullseye is best for the .45 powder. Unique and win231 will also do well)A nice scale to measure your loads.Lyman reloading manual.And lastly.. digital caliper to measure your over all lenghth of the round. Good luck to ya sir.

Did you install the rear sight? If so, how did everything turn out? Do the front and rear sights line up and provide accuracy? I have the 590A1 and am looking forward having this kit installed. thx for the feedback.

Yes on your Turret you have two (2) Setting the top one is for a 17 Grain Bullet and On the Bottom or the second line under the first is the setting for a 20 grain bullet In other words when you zero your fire arm in at 100 yards. If you are shooting farther you set the turret for that range and set it for a 17 grain bullet or a 20 grain bullet the marking are on the turret and you should be right on up to 250 yards.

I purchased the Lee Loadmaster for .223 and it came with a LEE FULL length carbide sizing die set. This was ready to rock and roll out of the package. I replaced that die set with a .300 AAC Blackout Die sets to load .300 AAC Blackout. It's easy and fun and Lee supports their product. I broke the sizing die rod (it was my fault), I called Lee and they sent me another one free of charge. Good luck

That's a good question. I'm actually mounting it to the gun today and hope to zero it in soon, perhaps this Sunday. To me, I would assume that would be the case. My gun has only two slots where the mounts will fit.It should stay 0

It comes with a couple shells- two, I believe. It's not a bad idea to get a few more though, if you can afford it, as each shell only allows for ten successive shots.

You need a set of dies for each caliber. Recommend the 4 die carbide set for each, not the three die set. The 4 die set includes a factory crimp die which does a better job. Also recommend getting another turret disk. They cost about $11 and allow you to change die sets by just changing the disk thereby not disturbing the adjustments. The set comes with one. You also need bullets, powder, primers and some way to clean the shell casings. The primer and powder measuring devices that come with the press are fine. The book is ok and the balance scale works but is slow.

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...
