I couldn't bring myself to spend the money for Dillon's nice 650 aluminum bullet tray, so...
I took 4 of my extra AkroBins and stacked them tight up against the base of the Strongmount, left side. Used mounting tape to hold the bottom edges of the bottom bin in place, one side resting on the bottom flange of the Strongmount and the other side (with double tape for leveling) resting on my bench. End openings are in front.
Top bin holds the bullets.
Next bin holds my safety glasses and earplugs.
Third bin down holds a cartridge gauge and magnifying glass for occasional inspections.
Bottom bin holds my calipers for checking OAL.
Assembly took all of 5 minutes, and I already had the bins.
In case I don't like this one, what home made bullet tray do you use? Somebody always has a better idea...
