Lee Precision 45 Acp 3-Die Classic Turret Press Kit$258.75
Availability: In Stock
The Lee Precision 38 Special 3-Die Classic Turret Press Kit brings smooth, reliable reloading to handloaders who want a single-stage turret press without the premium price tag. Built on Lee's proven cast-iron frame design, this press combines the convenience of a four-hole turret with the solid construction that's made Lee a reloading standard for decades. It's the right choice for handloaders stepping up from basic single-stage presses or anyone who values a smooth, repeatable stroke and easy die changes without breaking the bank.
The Classic Turret's rigid cast iron base and solid steel linkage deliver the silky-smooth operation that makes reloading feel less like a chore and more like craft. The press accommodates rifle cases over three inches long using the automatic index feature—deactivate it and you can load cases exceeding four inches. The oversized ram, drilled completely through, catches every primer in an attached clear PVC tube, so you'll never lose a primer or guess whether one got seated. The four-hole turret clicks into position instantly, letting you swap dies without fumbling with toolheads or spending time setting up between caliber changes.
This kit ships with everything you need to start reloading 38 Special: the press itself and a three-die set engineered for the cartridge. The included Lee Lever Primer System (LPS) and Lee Safety Prime tool put primer seating right at your fingertips on the press, eliminating the need for a separate priming tool. If you're planning to use a powder measure on this press, note that a riser may be required for clearance with the Safety Prime, and rifle users will need a short or long charging die to mount a powder measure.
This is a workhorse press, not a showpiece. It rewards careful technique and consistent procedure with accurate, reliable ammunition. Whether you're loading for target practice, pistol competition, or hunting, the Classic Turret delivers the repeatability that handloading demands, all without unnecessary frills.
