custom reloading blocks

I was looking for a solution for loading blocks for 416 Rigby and 475 Turnbull and 50–110, all large diameter cases

I found mintWorxs tools on the web and just got the loading blocks that I ordered from them. All I did when I ordered them is put a note in on the order that I wanted one for win mags, one for 416 Rigby and one for 50–110. They figured it out.

They’re 3-D printed, pre-numbered and fit the cases great and they’re deep enough so that the cases won’t fall over. I ordered three and they are very reasonably priced.

The owner actually sent me a handwritten note on the invoice asking me to let him know how they worked out

Nice young fellow.

Very nice for sure, and the owner obviously cares about his customers too.

IRT loading blocks, bench blocks, I've encountered some other quality offerings in the past few years.

Bench block from Custom Reloading Tools along with one of their loading blocks:





Some of the nicest loading blocks I've seen came from Nosler a few years ago. Made by a local CNC shop, anodized. Don't think they still offer them now though.

 
I have the traditional wood blocks that were offered years ago through Shotgun News., and a couple of newer ones Stalwarts, actually the same blocks too.

My Son in Law has been making mine lately. He pulled a half dozen programs off the net and 3D prints them.
I don't know what brand/type of material he's using, but it is pretty chemical resistant.
