Reloading Bench Setup

Post by 1Shooter »

Alright guys, I'm looking for some pictures and information on how you set up your reloading bench. After searching through the old posts I've found nothing on it, so I figured I'd make a new post to get info. I just picked up a behemoth of a desk the other day to use as my reloading bench. It's all steel with the exception of the top, and includes some drawers. Let's see some pics of your bench setup!

Why not attach the powder measurer to the top of the press?

I had it mounted on top many years ago but don't use it now. Its too good to toss so I just took a C-clamp and clamped it out of the way. Normaly I have a hand towel hanging from it..LOL

Added a RCBS Chargemaster since this pic was taken, love it more than the Lyman thats for sure. Tweaked the setpoints and added 1/2" straw to dispense tube and it rocks the powder out now.
