Dillon 550b + Strong Mount + Bullet Tray Question

[Sheldon N]

Quick question for any of you who have the 550B with the Dillon strong mount and the Dillon bullet tray.

How far to the left of the outer edge of the strong mount base does the bullet tray overhang? (imagine you draw a vertical line down from the left outer edge of the bullet tray down to the bench top)

I'm going to be mounting up my new 550B on the Dillon strong mount and it will be up against the left edge of my bench next to shelving. I don't have the bullet tray now but will likely add it in the future and just need to know how much room I need to leave between the left edge of the strong mount base and the edge of the bench/shelving.

Thanks!

Here's a pic I grabbed off the internet to illustrate what measurement I'm looking for...

I eyeballed it, it's 2.5-2.75 inches. Didn't feel like getting my level out to get exact.

Perfect, thanks.

I'll just add that you really don't want to have the edge of the bullet tray that tight to a vertical surface.

You're going to want some room all around it for easy access...say like 6"
