I'm not sure what they are. They were given to me. Wondering if they still make parts for them or if they are useful to me.

The turret press looks like a Lyman T-Mag turret press. Turret presses are pretty cool, I'd like to have one myself. You could set it up to do a number of different reloading chores, like general depriming before tumbling, case processing, etc. Of course you can load on it as well. Kind of like a single stage that you don't have to swap the dies out. Nice!

Looks like you also have a single cavity, as well as a four cavity casting mold of some sort. There should be some identifying numbers on it. I would check those out pretty carefully. There are some highly desirable molds out there. If you don't cast someone may be looking for that mold.
It looks like you are missing the handle to rotate the tool head. Here is a link to some available parts. I would call Lyman to see if any other parts are available for the press. Almost seems like a "score" thread, and I like a good score! jonblack |
| Besides the turret press, I see a 4 cavity Lyman mold with Lyman "nutcracker" handles, a 2 cavity Lyman mold and handle minus one of the wood pieces, a Lyman 450 lubrisizer minus a bunch of the linkage and a Lyman tong tool. Hard to tell what is in the 2 RCBS boxes. |

Appears as though the 4 banger mold is a WC of sorts,and I would agree the other mold is a single cavity, could be RB, possiby Lyman
What numbers are on the molds? Upon closer inspection it appears s though the Single cavity has a large spree plate hole, this may indicate a big bore rifle, or possibly a shotgun slug. |

It doesn't full length size bottle neck cartridges. ETA: I'm not sure if the stuff they are selling today will work with what you have. http://www.lymanproducts.com/lyman/dies/lyman-310-tool.php The 4 cavity handles are the ones with both wood grips and the pivot at the end. |

A slug mold should have a plug on the bottom to form the hollow base. Hard to tell what they are without the numbers... |

I see a combination mold and loading tool; can you read the cartridge marking?
That's a lubrisizer for bullets in the center, and either a top punch or sizer in the little box. How is the 4 cavity mold marked? I'll check one of my cross references to for the bullet if you need. What is in the box sitting on top of the mold handles? |
