Turret presses

I'm thinking about purchasing my first Turret press. I have a couple Rock chucker presses for precision work and a prochucker 7 for handgun rounds and bulk 556/762. But I was wondering if I should just get another single stage press or opt for a turret to save space.

I'm concerned about deflection of the Turret ring when seating/sizing. I have never used one before but that concern had given me pause. I actually like the design of the Lee 4 hole classic as the ring is supported on the outside and the ram is very close to the center.

The Redding T7 looks nice and 7 holes is convenient but it has that umbrella design that concerns me. I'm sure it is well made and virtually indestructible, but I just can't see how it turns freely without some slop, albeit small.

Are any of the qualified for minimal run-out/ precision sizing work? Or am I just better off with an army of single stage presses?

Thanks
