I am getting ready to build a reloading bench and thought I would check out all of the one's on this thread. I hope to one day be able to have as nice of a man cave and reloading bench as many of you.

A reloading area remodel from about a month ago....

Shotgun area: The steel hopper above feeds lead shot into the MEC loaders (not shown) that are mounted to the two pipes that show just under the bench top.



The SDB's are mounted to a plate that is clamped in a large vise, it swivels so that I can use any one of the different calibers just by swiveling to the loading position.



Bullets behind the SDB's.



Cleaning and work area.

Those are all some nice looking setups.

Here's mine that I just put together. It's in the corner of my sunroom and the total cost was less than $200 for the 2 cabinets. Everything else I had left over from my kitchen remodel or laying around the house.

The center section has a piece of countertop that drops in place if I remove the press, so I have a nice 90" long counter to work on other projects if I'm not reloading.

I'm going to get a fire rated safe to put between the cabinets that I'll bolt to the concrete and wall. That'll be were I store my handguns, powder and primer.

You might want to rethink storing powder and primers in an enclosed safe. Without room to expand, if accidentally ignited, you've created a bomb.

Damn, I need to clean up my bench.

What would be the safest secure way of storing them?

The point of the fire safe is to prevent ignition in the event of a house fire. If there are better alternatives, I'm all ears.

In 3 fire safes, stored in 3 different underground bunkers in 3 different states. One safe/bunker/location for each - Primers, Powder, Loaded ammo. Your guns will have to be stored elsewhere, of course.

Well, you asked for the safest, most secure way of storing them...

Seriously, in an open (ventilated) container or crate to allow the contents to burn slower and not explode.

I'm having the final touches up on the bench as we speak. I had them built because I dont have the space nor the tools to actually make it myself... so I hope it turns out well. I'll put up pictures soon. This thread is very inspiring!!!

There's a reason why most powders come in plastic containers rather than metal...
