How tall is the zero press without the additional stand from the bench to the top of the turret?

Does anyone know, or would someone that has one mind measuring and replying here? Thinking about picking one up to upgrade my MEC, but want to make sure I have room for it. I'm pretty sure I do, but with the upper cabinets behind my bench it might be close. Area 419's site says its 22" high, but I think that must be the total height and not the actual height from the bench. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer!

The Zero is 2.25" taller than the MEC.

Thank you! Most appreciated!

Looks like you already got your answer.

Thank you. I picked one up at Scheels tonight just before they closed. Really appreciate the info!

I highly recommend getting the shell holder and die ring sets from area 419. No regrets purchasing those. I load for multiple rifles, some same cartridge so those make life super easy.

Surprisingly the Zero Press is actually quite a bit shorter than my MEC which includes the mounting stand.

 

[John Glidewell]

because your Zero is not on a stand like the MEC.

Yep. That's what I said above. The Zero definitely protrudes farther off the front of the bench which I'm not all that wild about, but I'm sure I will get used to it.
