Your opinion would carry weight if you had reasoned support for it.

My opinion of the Lee Reloader (the $30 aluminum single stage with simple ram linkage) is poor. But it is usable. My opinion of the Lee Classic Turret is that it is the best Turret Press ever made for under $500. (Commonly priced at around $85).

It is the only Turret that offers auto-indexing (except for the inferior Lee Deluxe Turret). The turret heads are affordable at about $10 each and if you need no more than 4 die stations per caliber work just fine. The External Turret Ring (as opposed to the center post design of other turrets) design maintains alignment very well and is very much easier to swap turret heads.

The Lee Auto-Disk powder measure is the simplest case-actuated powder dispenser I have ever seen and the Lee Dippers are the cheapest.

Their scale is accurate as any, but does leave a lot to be desired in operatility and readability. I know how to use a vernier, but many do not and this one is very hard to see unless you have the scale mounted at eye level.

Reasoning. It lends opinions real weight.
