Your best (cheap?) organization tips and tricks

[dårlig jeger]

Just getting into reloading and it's a mess. Brass, dies, powder, primers, gages, tools, it's a lot to organize.

I'm looking for ideas (photos!) of ways to keep things clean and accessible. I usually load for one cartridge at a time but I have 5-6 total I load for.

Any tips for brass bins, tool racks, cabinet setups, etc., would be greatly appreciated!

For loading blocks, if you use pullets for a muzzleloader you can cut the top off the bax and use that for a loading block. Works great for 308/3006 sized cases and smaller.

So, I have a pegboard above my bench for basic tools and other odds and ends because it's a multi-use bench.

High cabinet to the left holds powder, primers, dies and boxed dies/ammo. Low cabinet holds plastic "shoeboxes" full of brass. Shelf under bench for heavy stuff.

My reloading bench is a old (heavy) 5 foot dresser. I have my press mounted on top and have six large drawers i store everything in

We use this for our camp box and I can’t even begin to describe how nice it has been. I think it would work well to organize reloading stuff as well.

I have a 4 tier shelving unit I got from Home Depot. I have some of the 7 gal HDX storage bins for bigger stuff and some of the 6.5 qt bins for small items. It works for my layout and has helped a ton keeping the bench from becoming a cluttered mess.

I just have to get better at being consistent and not letting mu die boxes sit on the bench and put them back in the storage bin they belong in.

Pegboard and tool boxes

Bins, Bins, and more bins of all sizes and shelves. I also really like these small bins, the brand is called Lock&Lock for storing bullets.

Put everything you have in a large box. Walk into your reloading room when it's pitch black.
When you are near your bench, take the box and toss everything you have in it and toss it all over the place.
Then turn on your lights, look at your bench..........now you are an organized reloader.
