From Lee website "The auto index on the press is capable of loading cartridges with an overall length of 2.313" or less. Our Classic Turret Press also has the auto index feature, and is capable of loading cartridges with an overall length of 3.313" or less. For both presses anything longer than the above specs, would require the turret to be manually advanced."

It does indicate the length limit once the indexing rod is removed. I like it a lot though. I have to get used to how different the linkage works and the force to push it. Feels a lot different then my single stage,

I am really loving this turret press now. I made .357 loads tonight and it was very smooth and I am getting used to how it operates. I am so glad I bought this press. I went through the 4 dies (as designed) with my wife and daughter watching how each operation works and they thought it was cool. My wife said it looks like "something from Willy Wonka". Very easy to operate and I can stop the handle in between the top and bottom to take a Case out and double check things very easily, which I really like. This is a great press.
