MilkMyDuds Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) Looking to replace my SDB with 650. Currently loading on SDB inside a semi-walk in closet due to space limitation. The closet is tall enough, about 7 or 8 feet high ceiling, and pretty deep about 50 inches deep. However, the width is very limited. I think only about 23-25 inches wide. Will I be able to operate 650 (with a strong mount) in this space? What is the max width when the bullet tray, finished cartridge tray are both installed on the strong mount? Can someone please measure and let me know? Thanks. Edited June 4, 2015 by MilkMyDuds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleTK Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 When you get your 650 mount it on the strong mount, and then move it around until you find the best place to mount it on your bench. I like a 30 inch height for the bench. (So I can sit down and reload (Old & Fat) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meyer23 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I used a couple large C clamps to hold the 650 down and as stated, run the press. (Assuming you're using the strong mount). Then you can always loosen them and move the press around until you find the right spot then bolt it down from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilkMyDuds Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) OK. One more question - does adding a Mr. Bullet Feeder increase width or depth needed to "comfortably" operate the 650? From the pictures/videos I have seen, MBF attaches to the case feeder. How much wider would that make? Edited June 9, 2015 by MilkMyDuds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
