Now those are some big ammo cans!

They're 20mm cans, and while the SeaWhiz uses a 20mm cannon, the A-10 uses a GAU-8 30mm (though it was originally designed around a 20mm Vulcan; this version, the YA-10, never left the experimental stage).

Ding, ding, ding, ding. Yup, 20mm ammo cans. I got them on a special from the Sportsman's Guide around 1990.

Here's my setup
Ok, I guess its finally time to reveal my setup. I've been meaning to do it for a while but just kept putting it off. Anyways here it is. At the moment, I live in a 1 bedroom apartment so I had to keep it small. Works for now until I get a place of my own (hopefully soon!)
I started with a decent workbench section from one of the big box hardware stores. Then added 2 layers of indoor 3/4 ply to the top to bolt the reloader to. I am VERY surprised just how solid this setup is.
The top drawer of the cabinet is the sort of the catchall drawer. A couple reloading books, dies, shellholders, trimmer, ammo boxes, and primer tubes. The bottom section has primers, brass, and bullets on the top shelf, and cleaning stuff, empty containers, powder, and a little more brass.

Huntinco, HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL !!
You cant see the rest in the pics but I built a 8' x 52 loft in my barn. The reloading room takes up 16' of that. In the rest of he space I put in a small office, kitchen, table bunk beds. All that's missing is a 60" flat screen TV & to install my 120x optical camera so I watch my hits on TV

huntinco what's the big bin of charcoal for?

It's not charcoal. That's shredded tires for the bullet catching boxes (which are faced with wood for attaching the targets).

Me too !Okay huntinco, you win. I am supremely jealous.
3 blank stocks - Future projects??
2 ChargeMasters - did you reprogram for faster charging or slower for accuracy
1 AmmoMasterII press - looks like adapter for standard shell holders
Do you shoot a 50BMG? Think you do - Think I saw some H50BMG on shelf.
Yes - I creeped on pictures by enlarging - only because I'm very jealous of your setup.
I love to shoot 1000 yards and beyond.
Wow you guys are good. Yes that's some H50 & a few stocks for future/in the works projects. The RCBS have not been tricked out and the loads are finished out on the acculab Vic-123. I sold the big 50 but I'm sure I build anoter before to long.
