Default Organized Chaos!

I was looking at the reloading cabinet Dale posted. Very nice and way more organized than my laboratory!! Figured I’d post some pics of where Dr. Evil concocts his creations. I do not have photos of my component storage, that is a Freedom Bunker State Secret!!

Looks like you've cleaned up since the last time I was up there!

From 10 down through .410 plus black powder paper and brass hulls. Throw in a myriad of metallic cartridge and there’s plenty to do. I avoid the loft when it’s too hot but cooler temps and I’m all over it.

Just started using the Spolar again after a 12 + year hiatus. Even had it set up for the shells I want to make now. 12g 7/8oz with 16g Clays for 1160 FPS. Also have top plates for 20, 28 & .410 if I want production numbers. I spoke with Spolar last week and they may be able to set me up with a top plate for 12g that'll load 2 1/2" shells. If they can do that I may inquire about a 16g 2 1/2" top plate too.

Daryl, I got the hull bin idea from Mike Smith. Thought he had a great set-up.

Yeah yeah yeah ! If I’d stop buying stuff and get control of the wave so to speak I could get organized again as well at home . Now I keep three or four shotgun loaders at the shop which can change depending on the day . I keep an old Lyman press bolted on my desk there for rifle rounds so for that all I need to do is bring the box of brass a box of projectiles powder and a few primers . For deer rifles I usually don’t load a specific load in amounts greater than ten I may however load five different loads for a specific rifle and use one after the other as I kill deer wanting to try different projectiles in said rifle .
