        I have a full brad point set. The holes aren't flat enough for my liking.

        I could drill all the way through the piece, and then glue on a thin plywood bottom though.
        I agree, you could drill 10 at a time with a longer drill bit; problem with that method/technique you would finish early; you could add peg type legs to the trays and then use the trays for stacking loaded ammo. You could put the pegs on the top and or bottom. When not in use you could simply pull the pegs.

        The advantage to drilling through the tray and adding the thin bottom is uniformity of depth.

          I keep my cases primer up . It helps me see which ones have spent primers , no primer and reprimed . It also keeps " stuff " out of cases .
          I just bought 10 32 acp plastic boxes off ebay - various colors and if you bought 7 , they gave you 3 more .
          I used to use pegs years ago , but the pegs picked up dirt / burnt powder and passed it on to next case in / on peg .
          If you only do one caliber - go for it .
          On a good night , we might do 300 to 400 reloads - probably from 4 to 6 calibers .
          But unless you learned reloading by watching me - you won't do as I do .

              How's a .223 shell fit in there?

                Looks great NCF. You can smoke meats with the best and reload too. You the man.

                    I just finished drilling the holes with the 7/16, works good for the 9mm, the 223 seems ok but I would drill them deeper. I drilled some holes in scrap wood first to see how they would fit. I still need to sand mine a little more and stain it and then a clear finish.
