Appears there are many more people out there that don't use the Dillon strong mount for one reason or another. Unfortunately Dillon's mounting base and compound linkage geometry makes bolting directly to the bench top awkward. I've seen a few that have notched out their bench in order to make it work.

Low ceiling hieght prohibited me from using the strong mount, made it work by cantilevering the loader over the front of the bench.

Foxbat, I agree with you on having the bullet tray close to the shell plate area. Went with a removable tray/box attached with an aluminum plate on the back side of the loader.
