Processed rifle brass, not much, just enough to be irritable.

My favorite round in the 9mm. I am still working off of a 3,000 round binge. Coming up soon more 10mm and .45, all with Precision Delta on top.

Loaded up 200rds of 147gr 9mm. Got another few hundred more to do before switching to 124gr loads. Got to fill the ammo cans back up.

Yesterday I formed and trimmed around five hundred Blackout case with the Dillion size and trim die. Works very well until the vacuum hose got plugged up. Before I noticed I had a mess going. Live and learn.
I get a big kick out of shooting the SBR surpressed with subsonic loads. So quiet you do not need ear plugs.

Stuck a damn 308 case in my F/L die. Never had my lube fail before. This one is really stuck! It ain't coming out while I walk this earth.

Here is my meager bench, complete now with a compressed air manifold, recently added. The 650 is tucked away. I also have a Rockchucker that bolts on the right hand end, when needed. The Sony radio provides some Country music when loading. An Acculab scale comes out when needed (reads .01gr). Plenty of weight on the bottom shelf, plus the bench top is bracket-bolted to two studs. Lighting has been improved since this pic.

Ralph, I got the pix you sent, and see what you mean. I guess I am sort of OCD that way. I could not work in your reloading area. Smile

I have a feeling (from forum discussions) that you are always reloading, casting, experimenting, etc. I tend to reload in large batches, enough of three calibers to get me through a year or more. I'll spend a couple of weeks to get stocked up. So most of the time my reloading bench is like the picture, with everything put away. It is repurposed for many other tasks, like gun cleaning, battery charging, etc. I also prefer to do the batch reloading in the winter time. The garage in summer, in AZ, even though it is insulated, can get uncomfortable during long periods of time.
 
I actually envy the method to your madness. It is just not in my brain to do things that way.

Setup the 3rd complete tool head for my 550B.

This one will be used for loading 9mm Major for my new custom Open gun that I just picked up yesterday.

Loaded up 40 124gr test rounds with CFE Pistol to give them a try through the new gun.
