      Just saw you wanted depth, I don't have that.

        43" and change on a strong mount, about 18" in depth (less swing)

        Both of those are rough measurements

          Rwnielsen,
          Could you please explain less swing, would that give me more room or less?
          Also looking at pictures if I did not use strong mount I could gain more clearance, is that correct?
          Thanks

            If you don't use a strong mount you'll have to mount the press at the forward edge of your bench. The linkage will swing down and under the forward edge. I show the depth at about 13" from the rear top of the case feeder to the front edge of the base. Just under 35" tall. If you need photos, let me know and I'll get a few

              Pictures with the tape measure in them also would be so kind.
              Thank You

                The first is at rest




                The second shows the swing under



                another shot




                It swings under just over 1 inch. The strong mount is 8 1/2" high.
                You need about 13" from the front of the bench to the back wall with a case feeder and about 35" in height without the strong mount. When I first got this setup I had it bolted directly to the bench and it was too low to be comfortable

                  My apologies for the grain but this is overall height with a strong mount

                    Thank you very much for the pics, it seems that if I need 13 “ from where the front of the Dillon is mounted to clear the upper cabinets then if I add the strong mount I will had about 5” on to the 13” for a total of 18” from front of Dillon to the upper cabinets.
                    Not sure I will have that much. I think I have more like 17”

                    thanks again

                      I shortened the case feeder support post & case feeding tube. Total ht is 36.75"
                      Now I can look into the case feeder w/o using a step stool.

                      Actually I only started collecting Milsurps 3 years ago. I think I might own about 24...They're cheaper than guns that will most likely never get the opportunity to kill somebody...

                      I belong to the group that uses firearms, and knows which bathroom to use.

                      Tis better to have Trolled & lost, Than to never have Trolled, at all.

                          How much did you shorten?
