how do you like those powder measure/dispensers, Ive been thinking I need one of those lately

Thanks for posting this BB.  Just what I'm looking for too!

There is never enough room.



T-Mags are nice, there is one on the bench shown but I've replaced it with a Lee Cast Classic Turret with 7 heads , much faster to change out, I have 13 different cartridges on the 7 heads.  If I were only loading for two or three cartriges the T-Mag would be great.  With the Lee I've been able to eliminate the Truline Jr And the T-Mag and put a Mec where the Truline was.

I use the Lee Classit Turret also, love that press, I have a disc for ever caliber, takes < 1 minute to change calibers.

KillBilly are those Lyman t-mags? if so how do you like them?

Yes they are and I luv em. I have a bunch of turrets and it is a quick change to calibers... There may be some better but not for me...

Mine is the rock chucker press made by rcbs. I don't reload a ton and don't mind screwing and unscrewing the dies. I'm very excited to get set up and loading at my house. Right now I go to my parents house and use my dads reloading set.

Im finishing up mine out in the shop. 24" wide by 16' long.

If that question is for me, I like them a lot. They are accurate to 1/10 of a grain and are quick and easy to use.

[JohnVH]

Yep, and thanks!

this is the way i'm thinking about going as well. any complaints about the system as a whole?

[JohnVH]

no complaints at all, I love it. The powder system isnt as accurate as a high quality setup, but its fast and for just shooting it works great, if your a bench shooting perfectionist, you may want something else..

It wont charge a 7mm mag, so I have to powder those manually, but everything else works great! Look at the vid, 1 loaded round ever 10 seconds about.

the powder disks were one thing that i was semi sceptical about. I did note the specs couldnt do large cartridges. 

I've got enough ammo to last me another year or 2 for the rifles so maybe christmas 2013 i'll get my set up.

I use my Lee as a single stage and use my bench mounted powder measures and hand priming tools..  I just like the ease of the changing die sets.

I am going to buy a reloading bench soon and was wondering what you guys use? I am looking at this woodworking bench at harbor freight.

 http://www.harborfreight.com/60-inch-solid-oak-workbench-93454.html

It is very sturdy and the top is plenty stiff for a press. Any other ideas?
It will he used as an all around shooting/hunting work bench also. Where I will work on archery stuff and reload. And gun cleaning etc.

Just an update, I ended up buying this bench last weekend and getting it all set up.  I just need to finish mounting the press, and I am ready to go.  It is much nicer than I anticipated from Harbor Freight.  I have had some sub par experiences with Harbor Freight in the past, but this product is very nice.  Chris, if you haven't already purchased one, they carry them in stock at the Harbor Freight on Nevada.  Thank you for starting this thread.
