Question Anyone have the "standard" In Line Roller handle for LEE Classic Turret?

The standard roller handle not the Ergo. For the CLASSIC turret??

http://inlinefabrication.com/collect...c-turret-press

Does it help eliminate wrist pain?

Does the handle stay up in the "neutral position or does the weight make it want to fall down?

Is it worth the money?

I have given up waiting for LEE. I wrote them several times. They make one for the standard turret but not their better press?? Go figure?

Thanks

I don't have it for the turret, but I have the roller for the Classic Cast (same handle). I opted for the straight one rather than the "ergo". I like to place things beside my press and the ergo would have gotten in the way. I really like the roller action, definitely makes the press easier to use. On my single stage the weight of the handle has no effect on the press, it remains upright just as it did with the stock handle.

I do have an ergo handle for my Hornady LNL AP as well and I have been impressed with Inline Fabrication's products and service.

Thanks, I also do not need the ergo style I was looking for something that takes the strain off my wrist when priming on the press. I use a lot of Wolff primers which are hard and take some force to seat, Plus age is creeping up on me, sports took a lot out of my joints.

On my progressive the ERGO moved the priming action from pushing towards the wall to pushing down at a 45 degree angle (towards the baseboard). It made a bigger difference than I was anticipating. If priming is what you're looking to solve you may like the ERGO. I'd recommend getting in touch with the guy who runs Inline Fabrication and see what his recommendation is. At $50 a pop you want to get the handle that will benefit you the most!

I would like one but at a LEE price, I heard you can get the LEE version and heat it and bend it to fit the Classic press.

Good luck with the billiard ball, lots of folks like it. If it does not work as you need it to, I highly recommend the roller handle from inline fabrication.

Great looking addition for those of us with less than healthy hands.

That's half the cost of the press. I'm no machinist, but it seems kinda pricey for what it is.
