    Lee Turret Press -> Progressive?

    I have an old Lee Turret press, no longer needed because I have a shiny new Hornady press now. For some reason I think you can turn the turret press into a progressive with some parts? Is this correct? If so, what do I need and where can I get it?

    Would make AR15 ownership much more... expensive.

    G'Day Fella's,

    I want to buy one of the newish Lee "Classic", cast iron turret presses and have a play with it.
    They can be set up as a single shell holder progressive and the 3 or 4 die holder turret, rotates with each pull of the press handle!
    I'll probably get 3 or 4 die holder/turrets and set them up to reload some of the smaller rifle and larger handgun ammo.

    If I remember, I'll try to reply onto this thread!

    Doh!
