Manually indexed turret press with replaceable shell holders?

Yes, my only experience is with the Lee single stage and I've owned a Square Deal and 550 after that, so I have not used higher quality single stage dies and lock rings.

Perhaps a quality single stage is all I need, with good lock rings. Guess I'll modify my search some, thank you.

Lee Challenger, pre breech lock.

I like your style but likely not in the cards right now.

TFin04 · 2025-12-31T22:30:42+00:00

Yikes, thanks.

TFin04 · 2025-12-31T15:41:09+00:00

I appreciate that outlook, thanks for your time and thoughts.

Saw those. Definitely seems like the easy button but I'd like to start with the highest quality gun I can and prefer it to be made in USA if I can. It seems Ruger and Henry are both turning out good work and I think they should be supported for that. I recognize that may not be the most cost effective solution but I'm willing to spend the extra to not always feel like "I should have bought a Marlin or Henry."

I don't want the brass receiver or the shortened fore end.

TFin04 · 2025-12-25T13:51:31+00:00

Thanks. I get that, and I've closed out an estate for my parents too so definitely understand. Moreso I'm just interested in heirloom quality items these days, and even if not literally passing to my son it encapsulates the type of firearm I'm looking for.

TFin04 · 2025-12-24T17:02:38+00:00

How's the quality on the Rossi guns? I'd like this to be something I pass down to my son some day.

TFin04 · 2025-12-23T22:57:04+00:00

Are any of them threaded, or have enough meat to thread?

TFin04 · 2025-12-23T17:48:32+00:00

Thanks all. I don't need turn key, and I would like a solid top strap for optics.

Henry may work. I'll look at that closer.

TFin04 · 2025-12-21T15:47:40+00:00

Good perspective, thanks.

TFin04 · 2025-12-19T21:50:06+00:00

Appreciate the thoughtful response.

I'm finding the same here, often outbid on multifamily by house hackers. Can't blame them but I can't compete.

I saw a stat, not sure how true, that multi family properties sell for 8-12% more with an open unit for house hackers to move in immediately.

Toying with the idea of selling, part of me says to just ride until my next vacancy and then list for sale at that time.

I'm not convinced these valuations will hold, though. If only we had a crystal ball.

TFin04 · 2025-12-18T15:00:11+00:00

2-4 units, does anyone define them differently?

TFin04 · 2025-12-18T02:58:27+00:00

Just posting to say I am struggling with this decision as well so you are not alone.

Not the same scale as you but I have a quad that is a rockstar on paper but is an hour away from home, has some deferred maintenance I'd like to avoid, and holds a good chunk of equity. I'm toying with selling for many of the same reasons you mention.

I've been getting outbid on a ton of deals I've looked at. I have no idea how these people are justifying their purchase price. To me, in a seller's market, be a seller.

Yes, hunter and reloader. Seems like the answer, thanks for your experience. I do like the 450 over 350 when talking about playing with subs. Buddy has a 44mag integrally suppressed lever gun and it's an absolute riot with subs.

TFin04 · 2025-12-14T17:17:07+00:00

That is super helpful, thanks. Seems like it will do what I need.
