My "Poor Man's" Reloading Bench

Send Me your Thoughts.

That should make as good quality ammo as any other setup...My only thought would be that on resizing rifle brass, pulling up on the press you would need to hold the sawhorse down with your hand....

You sir are a genius!

Naw, that's what the front part of an O-frame press is for. Good for you that you don't have a C-frame press.

Other than possibly the limited room to set crap I fail to see a problem with your setup.
To eliminate any movement on the sawhorse you could always attach a weight or cinder block to it like the Lee portable reloading press bench.

Clever. I salute your ingenuity.

Should be fine as long as you don't tip it over during resizing.....

Trust me, this little wood seat I got from home depot for 15 dollars doesn't need to be held down while im punching out primers, resizing, seating, etc....

I am poor, I got reprimanded by my wife for buying the lee kit so I had to come up with a cheap alternative to mount this thing

+1 you are going to have to weigh it down I would not call it a bench, more like a mounting stand

She reprimanded you for buying the lee kit?

Show her the price of a Dillon... that will quiet her down.

That works, but I bet you have to use your other hand to keep the whole thing from tilting...right? I had a similar setup for a while. I now have something heavier.

Edit: Ok, I just saw the post where you did mention it.

mine is a stool and c clamps

while reloading i rest a foot on a rung for support

"Don't touch!
Keep away!"

scrawled on by a ball-point pen. You are amazing, a man's gotta do with what he has, and this is an excellent example of that

Youll need a brass trimmer after a couple loadings.

Good job Flak88. I have been looking for a similar solution, and have a pair of spare Burros.
