I have a Lee 3-hole manual turret press and I'd like to add auto indexing. Unfortunately, Lee has discontinued all of the auto index parts for the 3 hole! But, I can switch to a four hole inexpensively.

Will the old 3 hole turrets work in the 4 hole press?

The problem is, I have 12 plates for the three hole press! If I have to spend $20 for the update and then almost $120 for new plates, then I'm better off buying another press.

I know the auto index won't work for the 3 hole turrets, but that's no big deal. I was hoping I could buy just one or two 4 hole turrets for the calibers I load the most.
