I really like my turret press. Really easy to use and cost effective. I was looking at it today while I was loading some .223 and wondered what happens to all the spent primers once you de-cap your case. Well they all fall into the unknow under the press with no way to getthem out without un bolting the press(which I had to do, No fun). I thought to myself that was not a very good design for getting rid of the spent primers. So I measured were the press was, took a 2' hole saw and cut a hole all the way through the bench. Then I took an old jar the GF had in the kitchen and cut a hole in the metal lid the same diameter as whats in the bench. I screwed the metal lid to the wood bench and then screwed the jar back on. Now when you re-size and de-cap the brass, the spent primer falls into the removable jar and just throw them away. Im sure you vetran reloaders already knew this but i figured id post it for some of the new reloaders like myself
Here is the metal jar lid with the hole cut the same size as the hole in the wood (2" diameter) then screwed to the bottom of the bench. The red part is the bottom of the press were the spent primers fall through.
After it fills up just unscrew it an empty the jar in the trash
