Just cause it is small doesn't mean I can't get it done. How much space do you need for a one man operation anyway?

Powder, live ammo, less often used equipment is stored in another room.

I consider it a modest operation. I know tones of non 06FFL guys with way more extensive setups than mine. It pays my bills and allows me to be my own boss though.

Questions, comments, requests for detail pictures?

I don't know which impresses me more, your work with the 300 RSAUM, or the fact you have an actual Lava Lamp on your workbench!

Wife used to have family in Lolo. In 83 I almost bought a place on the other side of Lost Trail Pass on the North Fork of the Salmon.

Nice, albeit not sure what nice is, but looks good and efficient. My question is: WHAT do you do???

That looks to be a pretty good setup, efficient toooh.
I have an attic that is partially finished where all a mine reloading stuff is, not near as elaborate as Yours is, not nearly the storage facilities either.

I can see your pretty deep into reloading large calibers for one :twothumbs:
..... but like OC asked, what exactly do you do?
Does that FFL force you to have open doors for the feds when they choose to visit? :pinch:

Yes the feds can visit, however the local ATF agent is particularly friendly and his policy is to give a 3 day notice prior to showing up.
