I have had a couple of turret press,s over the years but I keep going back to my single station I have a Lyman crusher had it for at least twenty years never let me down. Nowadays I tend to use my Wamadet press for most of my hand loads and the full bore precision stuff is built using an arbor press and L.E.Wilson neck bushing and micrometer seating dies along with redding body dies and competition shell holders. I use the shooting sheds shoulder bump and cartridge overall length gauges to build my handloads so they custom fit my rifle chambers. I also use Leeloaders a lot some of them heavily modified to work with my arbor press. They neck size only and are great fun to use.

I bought my lyman Spar-T turret press about 40 years ago; still using it primarily for .223 & .308 reloading; I would not hesitate to buy another if I needed one (but I don't! ) I've used it for .223,7.62/308, 303, 8mm & 30-06 without any issues.

I also have two lee turret presses used primarily for pistol calibre ammo. (Lee Progressive 1000 & Lee Loadmaster) Both very good but the Progressive can be finicky)
