The Best Cheap Reloading Blocks

[19Scout77]

I just witnessed a $50+ plastic rack with holes drilled in it to hold brass when reloading!!! Good god! If we don’t waste enough money. Years ago I was turned on to the best option going and Amazon makes it easy. Measure your brass diameter and search for centrifuge tube racks. For $50 you will end up with 5-10 50-100 hole racks ranging from 223-wsm.

My favorite for 223. Solid and heavy.

The second ones are not even close. They weigh about a pound each.

I’ve always been fine with the Frankford Arsenal trays for everything. Seems low budget enough for me and work great. I’d really like for someone to make and give me some made from marble...

I use the frankford trays as well. I mean, 5 bux each, I think I got one as an add-on during prime days for even less. I only need one for each body size. Stacking 50 on a bench is enough for me.

Concur....Frankford are more than sufficient. As Lash said, fancy ones are cool and all, but paying for them isn’t happening when they don’t do anything the $5 version doesn’t do.

I just use old 45acp ammo trays. Cheap plastic trays used forr factory 45 acp ammo. 50 rounds per tray, .308 win and 6.5 Creedmoor fit perfectly.

I used those for a long time. But I would break em from time to time. I've dropped my frankford off the bench countless times. Granted the old 45 trays are essentially free, but it did get annoying after breating a bunch. But that's more my being careless than the actual tray failing.

Buy a 1/2 drill bit and some wood, get busy

Lyman stadium orange blocks, easy to grab the cases.

that’s what I use for 260 and 223.

I have the one that came with my Lyman press, one of the Frankfurt arsenal that I got off Amazon and a MTM that I picked up at Academy Sports.

I’ve been loading with mtm since I was a kid with my dad. We both also use the mtm powder funnels with the long drop tubes.
