The "Reloading 101" thread recommends getting a drill press and various accessories. We have a floor drill press but it will be nowhere near my reloading area. My experience with that drill press is not extremely good. My main complaint with it is that I cannot control the speed very easily (have to change pulleys) and the lowest speed is frequently higher than I would like to use.
I suspect (and my suspicions are somewhat verified by some Snipers Hide threads that I've searched for and read) that for reloading stuff it would be nice to have a pretty slow speed available.
I would expect that you can't get a bench drill press that runs very slow without laying down a fair amount of cash.
Anyway, I like the idea of a bench mounted drill press but I don't want to spend 100 dollars for a cheap one and decided I don't like it and then have no other use for it (because I've already got a floor mounted drill press).
For those of you who successfully use a bench mounted drill press, what RPM do you have yours set at? Do you like it or are there other setups you've seen that you would prefer? Thanks.
