Yes, 2 of them, I'm lazy 
They do cut down on loading time. At least for me they do as I'm always switching between compression and seating as I load.

RE: Redding Turret press
Yes. Good press.

RE: Redding Turret press
In my opinion, I think they are about the best thing on the market. If I were to buy a new press it would be one of those. I use a couple of 1960's era spartan turret presses and like them very much. I had a new Lyman (2007 era T mag)for a short time and it was a piece of junk. I have also used an RCBS turret and it was ok. The only others you might consider are a forster co-ax press. My brother uses one and swears by it. I do like it as well. Also, I was curious about the new C-H presses. I see them written up in a recent Rifle/Handloader magazine and they looked appealing. It all comes back to the Redding, I don't think you can go wrong.
Good Luck, Cody

RE: Redding Turret press
Cody I have one of those CH presses and they are ok. I used to have it mounted in the camper for reloading when we are on the road.
I kept the sizing die in the back center so the press don't get sprung by putting off center pressure having the die in front with a lot of pressure off center of the throw. This will wear the bushings. I wore out a old red three station C&H putting off center pressure on it.
The press is not as handy to use as the Redding. The shaft gets in the way when you use the center back shell holder.

RE: Redding Turret press
I really like mine Don. I like having the dies for my 90 and Daniels 70 set up so I can just pop back and forth. Makes it pretty darn handy when you are loading for a couple of different rifles.

With all the strong revues it has got here.
Thanks guys.[/i]
That is definitely another reason to buy Redding! Besides the discount, they supported our match. Let us know what you think when you get it.
