What is your favorite part of your reloading room?

also have my own 300-500 yard range in the backyard

I use a spare bedroom. Wish it was bigger, but it works. I use the walk in closet as a bullet storage and RCBS station for shoulder bumping and small base loading. Use the main room for the CoAx I use for seating everything else.

The best thing is the three windows. A pond view through two and a woods view through the other.

my whole gun room is 13.5' x 8' and you saw what i put in it. you just need to be more efficient with your space

unless by spare bedroom you mean it still has to retain an actual bed inside of it, then I understand your conundrum.

Bill Forrester(HOF'er) use to travel to matches all over in a van, loading inside.

And in solitude.

He did not like anyone knocking on the door and taking a look.

He probably made the best 22 caliber bullet ever.

I asked him one day about shooting a 22 in BR, and if they ever scored him wrong, as a 6. His words..." I count on it!"

No bedroom furniture. Not enough vertical storage. All the wall space is utilized.

Custom cabinets would do wonders for me. Or anyone for that matter.

I see who wears the pants in a lot of houses. Lol! Smart men!

That's why I have my own "mancave" No not really. I have to say when my reloading room was in the spare room in the house my wife did not object or bother me at all.

My comment was in jest, of course...but it's nice to see a real man amongst us. Lol!

LOL.

can you get a nice husky toolbox in there? worked wonders for me for storage

finished, ready to shoot ammo...and components to make more.

I built a dedicated 10x12 gun/reloading room and a couple things I’ve been really happy with is the sound proof cabinet for tumbling and the roll around tool bench for working on guns. If I had it to do all over, I’d just make it bigger

I’ll admit, right now it is a bit disorganized as I’ve been working with 4 rifles the past few days…

But on the plus side, I know where everything is.

I don’t think a toolbox would fit.

My workspace is like this, except not quite as organized.

well i meant fit through your house and door. you could clean up so much of that with a 72" toolbox. remember the toolbox serves as new tabletop space as well.

My favorite part of the reloading room is the whole thing. I took 1/2 of a bay in my 3-bay shop and made it my mancave. It's only 12' X 12' and tight but it is "my space" where I spend probably 75 to 80 % of my time awake. The fact that I can take about 10 steps and be in my still under construction 12' x 20' shooting room behind the shop makes it even handier. Very easy to work up loads while testing as well. I only have 100 yds. here at my hole in the woods to shoot but all in all it beats having to load up every time I want to go shoot and no range fees to contend with either. I feel blessed to have it no doubt.

What he has ^^^^^^^.
But mine is 20x20 and a 200yd range. And I spend 80 to 90% of my time. Man Cave.

My $17 solid core door for bench from menards and 46 inch height so it's perfect for me to stand at. Have memory foam pad to stand on now as well.



And my bullet shelving i built into the studs.

Yep, at some point in the near future I hope to have my shooting room completed. Not in a huge hurry at all as I can shoot there anyway.

As you know already, mirage can be absolutely brutal at times but it sure beats not shooting in really cold or hot temps. It's far from as perfect as some think but I'm not about to complain about it either
