    Re: Show us your reloading bench

    Just took these a few minutes ago. Not great pics, but it's all I can do since it is dark when I get home from work and the only camera I have is my phone.

    Did some work on the loading room today. I was to embarrassed to post pics earlier, as it was a pig pen.
    Some of it still is, but it is better than when Zee was there.

    Mine is a tool box with a Lee Hand Press in it. I don't see myself staying in one place long enough to justify setting up a no kidding reloading bench for a long time.

    Re: Show us your reloading bench

    I dont feel embarassed Ernie..........My bench looks like this cos once the flowering season starts it becomes the repository for any shooting related junk that comes from the other six sheds on the property........

    Here is a view of the reloading bench........



    And here is a view of the rest of the shed.

    The bench in the foreground has 2 complete 3.L twin turboed V6's from my 1992 Mitsubishi GTO which I need to put back together sometime in the near future..........when I get time..........if I get time....

    Despite the mess I can normally put my hands on anything I want..................it just takes time Lol

    Still enjoying the trip of a lifetime and making the best of what I have.....

    Can you put your hands on some .318" jacketed bullets? I'm about to obtain another supply of 8X57 brass for Woodsrunner's project! I sent him a supply of cast-bullet loads awhile back, and I don't think he's shot any of them yet!

    Got 200 sitting here ready to go Jerry, My buddy who is an Airline pilot was due to fly to London via LA and I was going to get him to post them from his hotel on his stopover.........he got sick and couldnt fly. His next scheduled 'hop' is in 2 weeks time so they will be on their way then. ( To post them from here is about $130 and the post office put all sorts of conditions on them as they class them as Class II goods !!!)

    408 Chey-Tac or a 50 BMG (going to have to check) case shortened and necked down to either 30 or 338 (can't remember now). Then Dave Viers took the head of the case smaller, making it a rebated rim. It is simply a conversation piece. I took him like 12-13 steps to do it.
    I have told several people in the past, it is my next SP cartridge, just to see their response...
    I will get specific details tomorrow for you.

    No kidding, I at least dug down to the floor in the man cave the other day. Went from clean, shooting season, to messy, building season, and I have to get it clean enough to load for hunting season, this week.

    I think Eturn is using one of my old benches in one of my old basements. That pic was dejevue all over again. Plywood and white washed walls...
