Reloading Bench

My Setup

I reload indoors, not in the garage. I have a used Craftsman workbence, with a 1" sheetmetal over beaverboard top. Everything stores in the workbench.

The top would be worthless, but I have it mounted to the wall studs in four places. And the press mounts nearly eliminate any torque from the presses.

The blue press is a 1997 Dillon SDB with which I reload 9mm, 40sw, 45acp, & 44 mag. I lost count of how many rounds - but I think it is about 100k. The red press is a Lee Classic Turret - lots of rifle cartridges. Both presses are mounted on raised mounts fron Inlinefabrication - best money I ever spent to upgrade the mounting system. I highly recommend this company for mounting systems.

I'm using the Lee Deluxe Perfect Powder Dispenser bolted to the bench using Lee's sturdy mount. Sitting on a spill plate.

The presses are turned slightly to optimize working angles. The Lee only requires left-side access. The Dillon requires both sides.

The Dillon is illuminated using inlinefabrication's LED kit. The Lee is lit using a standard desklamp mounted on the wall.
