Area 419 Billet Loading Block for .308 Cartridges
This is serious reloading equipment built by people who understand the craft. Area 419's billet loading block is machined in-house from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a clear anodize that stands up to the daily wear and tear of a busy reloading bench.
Capacity and Design
The block accommodates 50 rounds of .308 Winchester or magnum bolt-face cartridges (.308 Magnum, .338 Lapua Magnum, and similar). Each hole is precisely machined to 0.485" diameter with a 0.500" depth—a tight fit that keeps cases upright and prevents tipping during the loading process.
Safety Features
Small divots at the bottom of each hole serve an important purpose: they catch powder kernels and prevent them from rolling around your bench. This attention to detail reflects the designer's understanding of reloading safety.
Stability and Durability
Rubber pads on the bottom keep the block firmly in place during use. The clear anodized finish provides superior corrosion resistance compared to bare aluminum, ensuring your investment holds up through years of reloading.
