Space needed for Press and Casefeeder
Quote from Reloader on July 28, 2014, 12:46 amMy 550B arrived yesterday and I've already cranked out 1000+ rounds on it. It's SO much better than the old single stage press I was using. I know in the future I want to buy the casefeeder for the 550. I am also planning to build a shelf to mount the press to the wall in the garage (I have it mounted to a workmate bench now). I have an area that is 24" wide which I think would be wide enough but how much room from front to back do I need so that the press and casefeeder would't hit the wall behind the press. Could someone with a 550B and casefeeder take some measurements for me to let me know how big of an area I need.
Thanks!
