    Soooooo, about reloading.




    Is this enough room to reload ?



    I mainly just wanna do .45 ACP, .40sw and 9mm. Not big on rifles or shotguns, I'm more of a pistol addict.

        Before I had a garage, I had way less room than that in my apartment. Have at it.

          Yep, I reloaded in my apartment using a press bolted to a piece of plywood and the plywood clamped to the kitchen counter!

            It's a mess but this is my setup in my studio.

              More than enough room, maybe get some kind of strong mount if you still want to open those cabinets

                Man, I already look crazy as is to my family and friends, I wonder how they would react if I pick up reloading.

                Any other suggestions how to reinforce the counters?

                    More then enough room. I use a 30" walmart desk now that I have moved. Before that a 36" bench I built which was large enough for 2 presses.

                      Those counters would work fine with a single stage press, for a progressive they would probably work well too, but if its not too ugly you might want to lay another layer of plywood underneath the strong mount. All those cabinets will come in handy for storage and stuff.

                      That would actually make a pretty damn useful reloading area, maybe a bit uncomfortable because your legs will be up against cabinets and it looks to be stool height

                        Ivan said he would show me how to reload.

                            For pistol those may be sturdy enough, find an internal brace that's likely between the pairs of cabinet doors and mount your press over it. My pressed wood bench was fine for pistol, but once I started resizing .308 progressively it started to sag. I used what I had available to strengthen it...you may not have to go to this extreme...

                              That's more than enough room to get started. But be careful because it turns into this mess
