The Lyman Custom Fit Loading Block .485 (SKU: LY-CFLB485) is a precision-molded reloading tray designed to bring stability and order to your reloading bench. Unlike generic, one-size-fits-all trays that allow cartridge cases to wobble or tip, this custom-fit block is engineered specifically for cartridge families with a case head diameter matching or slightly under 0.485 inches (approximately 12.3 mm). Manufactured from a heavy-duty, durable polymer, this block holds up to 50 cartridge cases securely upright. This precise fit minimizes the risk of accidental powder spills during the charging phase, ensuring a safer and more efficient handloading workflow for Australian shooters.

Key Features:

• Custom-Fit Security: Molded to closely match the .485-inch family of cartridges, keeping cases perfectly upright and preventing tipping.
• 50-Round Capacity: Holds up to 50 cartridge cases at a time, making it easy to manage standard batches of ammunition.
• Space-Saving Nesting Design: Engineered to securely nest together, allowing multiple blocks to be stacked neatly to save workbench space.
• Clear Size Markings: Features highly visible ".485" markings for quick identification when organizing multiple calibers on the bench.
• Durable Construction: Made from heavy-duty polymer that resists solvents and wear, ensuring long-term reliability.
