The Redding RS-6 Powder Measure Bench Stand (MPN: 06000) provides a rigid, elevated mounting platform for manual reloading powder measures. Built from cast metal and aluminum with a durable Redding green finish, the stand secures dispensers above the workbench surface to create operating clearance beneath the drop tube for cartridge cases, loading blocks, and powder scales. The non-threaded collar design allows standard powder measures to drop into place and lock from beneath using the measure's lock ring, enabling rapid powder emptying without unbolting the base from the bench.

Key Features

• 7/8"-14 Collar Interface: Accepts standard 7/8"-14 threaded powder measures across multiple brands by passing the threaded body through an unthreaded collar and securing it with the measure's lock ring.
• Quick Reservoir Dumping: Loosening the lock ring allows reloaders to lift or rotate the powder measure freely to empty leftover powder back into canisters without removing the stand.
• Elevated Drop Tube Clearance: Raises the dispensing measure 6.5 inches (approximately 165 mm) above the benchtop to accommodate tall rifle cases and cartridge trays directly under the drop tube.
• Compact Bench Footprint: Occupies a base area of approximately 3.75 inches deep by 3.0 inches wide (95 x 76 mm) to minimise lost workbench space.
• Mechanical Simplicity: Solid cast construction functions as a purely non-powered workshop accessory requiring no electrical supply or wiring.

Who is the Redding RS-6 Bench Stand for?

• Precision rifle reloaders using standard threaded measures — Needs a dedicated benchtop platform with an unthreaded collar sized for standard 7/8"-14 thread mounting bodies that provides 6.5 inches (165 mm) of vertical rise for loading blocks and cartridge cases.
• Handloaders seeking quick reservoir dumping — Requires a reloading powder measure stand that permits complete reservoir emptying by loosening a single lock ring rather than unfastening the 3.75 in x 3.0 in base from the workbench.

Less suitable for: Handloaders utilizing automated electronic powder dispensers with integrated scales, or those requiring press-mounted die adapters to charge cases directly inside a progressive press station rather than a standalone 6.5-inch elevated bench mount.
