I have just about completed my new set-up. I need to move my case trimmers and some of the small items. Snapped the pictures before it becomes too cluttered. Built the bench, drawers, and shelves myself.

Mike, your reloading set up is very organized. A good role model for rest of us.
 
Reloaded my first rounds on my new setup last night, 470 Nitro. It was nice having everything neat and organized.

Less time reloading moretime shooting!!!!!!!!
 
Thats cool setup mike,
The challenge is to keep it that organized.
 
...Mike, that's a nice setup!! Quite similar to mine.. Mines a little bigger & more cluttered!! The wife says I should clean my bench & take some pictures to post! I keep telling her I know where everything is I hate to prove her right!! After almost 20 years of reloading one accumulates to much & doesn't really gain anymore place to put it! That's why I have a couple old end tables Etc. beside my bench to store more bullets,cases, and powder!!
 
I wish my liquor cabinet was that organized and well stocked.
 
looks good Mike
 
Hey Mike, I am in the process of moving house and at the moment and all my reloading gear is in about 10 boxes stacked in one of the sheds on the new place. I would be willing to let you come over and " sort it out for me " since you can do such a great job. LOL
 
The original post was from 2 1/2 years ago. It is still fairly neat and a little more cluttered.

I upgraded the press and the whole setup has served me well.
 
hey mike how does it look now mate
 
Nice looking set up. Lots cleaner than mine. Mine always seams to collect clutter from all over. from the design to half complete I still have not don cabinet doors yet and it's been two years

ive got stuff in there ,with more crap stacked on top of it . that l havnt even opened yet !!
im going to finish linning it out before the end of this year , bugger it me minds made up
thanks for an excuse to rant
 
righto mike how about an update on your reloading room.
just to let us see that your not a clean freak ,mate :laughing:
 
I'm with bluey let's see how it looks now. I wish mine was cleaner seems I never get the time although I never want it to clean that way I can slip something new in under the radar of the wife. I'm afraid if it was to clean she may take notice of a new box

im hearing ya , mate
last time l had the cave (which is a 8x5 metre shed) reasonably neat and tidy , my bride decided that she needed just a bit of space in one corner for her porcelien dolls and sewing stuff for her hobies .
and that was that .
now 2 of our kids have left home (YIPPEEEE EYE A) im going to try again.
ive offered both the boys the pool table ,but its still there under lots of cool stuff (read shit)
 
I wish that one I could hide from her spike. I did manage to get ten new boxes of 470 bullets past her though. The heym was a bit to big to hide that bill it has not even shown up and I'm already hearing about it hahaha I wonder how many new shoes it's going to cost me.

mmm shoes :thinking::bulb: yup sh-t loads of pairs :D
 
Nice bench. The only thing I can suggest is a steel cabinet to store the powder in to reduce the potential of a major fire. Its not likely to ever catch but if it did it would sure be an inferno.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
