Can anyone tell me why handle won't fit a lee classic cast? It just says it will only fit a 1k and cheapo turret

The Ergo handle is made out of 1/2" stock, whereas the standard Classic Cast handle is made from 5/8".

It will actually fit quite happily in the Classic press, you just have to torque down on the fastening. However the handle does rotate a bit in use - probably a wrap of duct tape might help.

Ah that makes sense, sure I have some stock that can make up 1/8

Bought one, figured I'd just try it first as on removing the handle, the sleeve goes a good way in. Bolt could do with being a tiny bit shorter but feels ok as is
So for anyone else wondering if it will fit a classic cast turret, yes it will
