Saw this today and couldn't leave it behind. I normally use the cheap plastic blocks...

Machined from a solid billet, caliber specific.

Nice, I'm just using old 45 ACP trays for my 308 rounds. Lets just say after knocking over 2 cases with 43.5 gr of powder made it pretty important to have trays... I haven't knocked a case over since...
 
Caliber specific is far superior to the uni plastic blocks that have a tendency to shake rattle and roll.
 
I was cursing my loading block one day while loading Hornet because they rattle all over and wont hold up the funnel. A buddy of mine was over and was somewhat amused at my dilemma so he went home and made me a beautiful little block from a piece of walnut specifically for the Hornet cases. What a Godsend that block is when loading Hornet now. It holds 100 rnds in a 5 X 20 arrangement and he put little leather feet on the bottom and finished it in a nice high gloss finish, it's really well done and a very attractive addition to my loading bench.
 
I really like the Sinclair heavy duty cartridge specific blocks. At about $11.00 USD they are good value for the money.

These blocks are machined from solid white polyethylene providing the reloader with a very durable, easy to clean loading block. Each block is machined to fit the specific cases you reload and has finger grooves machined into the sides to provide a sure grip. Each hole has a slight chamfer for easy case head entry. The “Poly” blocks are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. We use white polyethylene because spilled powder shows up easily. These 50 round blocks are 1" thick to provide deeper holes for your cases to sit in. This is especially beneficial when loading larger cases.
