Reloading Room and Brass Stockpile Photo Share

I always enjoy when others share photos of their reloading set ups and spaces so I thought I'd share mine.

I'm lucky enough to have an entire "bedroom" in our house as my retreat, relax and work space. One half of the room is my reloading area.

To the right and out of photo range is a Lee Load All press I use for shotgun loads, which is mounted to a bench adjacent to the one in the photo. It's mostly an open bench/work area.

I have two progressive presses set up to load my most common, higher volume rounds and a single stage press to load my smaller volume rounds.

In addition to a few lamps on either ends of the benches, I ventured over to everyone's favorite Swedish reloading accessory provider, Ikea, and purchased a couple of clamp on LED lights that I attached to the case feeder on one of the presses. They eliminate a lot of the shadows you tend to get and really help to light up the shell plate area.

All of my tools, accessories etc are easily accessible on the bench's backboard, or in nearby storage, and I've mounted a few power bars underneath the bench to power all the lights, accessories etc.

I have a nice lazy chair and side table nearby where I can read, set up my laptop and work (I'm lucky enough to work from home) or just otherwise lounge around in a room that I've managed to make mine. My wife is better off at decorating the rest of our house than I am, but this room....this one room is mine :)

I'm sure there are many of you out there with a LOT more brass than I, but here is my current stockpile. Each bin is 15L volume...not sure of the exact brass count, but it's well in to the tens of thousands. I have a few smaller containers for the lower volume stuff, or calibers that I'm just starting to accumulate.

I just renovated my reloading room. I'm retiring the old RCBS Ammomaster progressive press as the only thing I use progressive for anymore is 45 Colt, and I think I will get a smaller Dillon or something to do that. The RCBS is a massive press. I'll put some pics up once the room is set up. :)
 
More organized than i. When i moved i found enough parts i forgot i had to make 3 mossberg 500s and 2.5 870s.
I have about 6000 9mm brass scattered across my gunroom floor and 30-35lbs of lead shot #8 on the floor thanks to my no so agile english mastif that backs up as well as my wife parallel parks. No photos though. Guns down one side reloading benches along the other side
 
I have been collecting brass for years now. All I can say is that my garage cannot contain much more! Lol!

I have noticed in the last year or so that people are shooting much less out in public areas. Brass supply is very noticably down locally. But a few areas a short drive away are hoping busy! I am thinking I easily have 2 or 3, 45 gallon barrels worth by now.

I have spent a silly amount of time polishing and segregating brass! I have had to replace/ rebuild the motor on my tumbler. I am super pleased with my Lyman 1200 still. Wish I coulld post a picture, but since photo bucket went south. I havent bothered to learn another way to post pictures.

you are all lucky!!!
I can not find enough brasses here locally.....
the only range I go, is out door, and it is always clean….:-(
Had to buy some 9mm cases while at the gun show here in Calgary...
 
I'm moving the reloading and gun rooms and i'm finding brass everywhere!!!!
Soon as I get ready to clean a batch from a 454gr cat treat container to store in a bin, I find more of the same caliber.

Speaking of Hoarding.

well ya but if you ever want something in an open toe, turquoise, mid length heal, it'll be one hell of an acrobatic maneuver to get all the way over there without disturbing the rest of the collection....its important to leave aisles, or at least have some sort of reaching stick...am I the only one seeing this?!

I see about 16pairs x16 rows =256 pairs.
Thankfully my wife does not have that many.
Now how many pairs of high heels are in another room?
