The Lyman Brass Smith All-American 8-Station Turret Press is a complete, all-in-one reloading kit built for shooters who want serious capability without piecing together components from a dozen suppliers. This isn't a bare press—it's a full reloading system that handles everything from large rifle cartridges to high-volume pistol work, backed by Lyman's reputation for solid, no-nonsense equipment. Whether you're fine-tuning match ammo or building loads for hunting season, this kit gives you the press, tools, and reference material needed to start reloading with confidence.
At the heart of the kit is the heavy-duty turret press itself, featuring an 8-station turret that holds up to four two-die sets, letting you swap between calibers and setups quickly without constant tool changes. The press includes Lyman's straight-line Auto Primer Feed system, designed to speed up primer seating while maintaining the precision that careful handloaders demand. The smooth operation and robust construction handle the full spectrum of cartridge sizes, from small pistol rounds to magnum rifle cases, without flexing or chatter.
Beyond the press, Lyman packed this kit with the tools that separate a complete setup from a frustrating one. You get the Brass Smith Powder Measure with stand for accurate charge drops, a Pocket Touch 1500-grain digital scale for verification, a Universal Trimmer with nine popular caliber pilots, a Case Prep Multi-Tool, Magnum Bullet Puller, Case Lube Kit, loading block, powder dribbler, powder funnel, primer tray, and the 50th Edition Reloading Handbook—the reference standard for handloaders building loads with confidence.
This is a kit for reloaders ready to move beyond borrowed presses and makeshift setups. It's the kind of buy that pays for itself in consistency, saved time, and the simple satisfaction of knowing your ammunition is built right.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers can I reload with the All-American 8 turret press?
The press handles the full range of modern rifle and pistol cartridges, from small pistol rounds to large magnum rifle cases. The kit includes a Universal Trimmer with nine caliber pilots covering the most common loads, and you can source additional pilots separately for less-common cartridges.
Do I need to buy anything else to start reloading, or is everything in the kit?
The kit includes the press, powder measure, scale, trimmer, bullet puller, case prep tools, all the small accessories you need to begin, and the 50th Edition Reloading Handbook—your primary load reference. You will need to source dies, ammunition components (brass, primers, powder, bullets), and any caliber-specific pilots beyond the nine included.
Is this kit suitable for high-volume pistol reloading?
Yes. The press is designed for both pistol shooters and rifle handloaders. The 8-station turret, Auto Primer Feed, and Brass Smith Powder Measure are all built for efficiency and speed without sacrificing the precision that careful reloaders expect.
What's the difference between this kit and just buying the Lyman press alone?
This All-American 8 kit bundles the turret press with a complete set of essential tools: powder measure, digital scale, case trimmer, bullet puller, case lube kit, and all the small items that otherwise require separate purchases. The included 50th Edition Handbook and accessories eliminate guessing about what you need to get started—it's truly a complete, turnkey system.
