Lyman Universal Press Stand Most Presses

The Lyman Universal Press Stand is built for reloaders who want a solid, adjustable platform that works with most popular single-stage and progressive presses on the market. Whether you're running a Lyman, RCBS, Hornady, Redding, Lee, or Dillon press, this heavy-duty steel stand adapts to your setup without forcing you to buy press-specific equipment. It's a practical solution for anyone tired of working at bench height or dealing with the ergonomic strain that comes with loading ammunition hour after hour.

The stand raises your press 9¼ inches above your bench surface—a straightforward design choice that improves sight lines to your work and dramatically reduces fatigue. When you're focused on precise reloading operations, being able to see your press clearly and maintain comfortable working posture isn't a luxury; it's the foundation of safe, consistent ammunition production. The elevated position keeps your hands and eyes in the right place without awkward bending or reaching.

Flexibility is built in. The stand comes pre-drilled with two standard mounting plate patterns that fit the vast majority of presses, but if your equipment doesn't match those patterns, there's a blank drilling area where you can custom-mount your press. All hardware needed for mounting is included. The stand itself bolts permanently to your bench or clamps on with a C-clamp if you need quick removal—your choice depending on your workspace setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this press stand work with my specific reloading press?

The Lyman Universal Press Stand is designed to work with most current single-station turret and progressive presses from Lyman, RCBS, Hornady, Redding, Lee, and Dillon. It comes with pre-drilled mounting plates that fit a wide range of models. If your press doesn't match the existing patterns, you can drill your own mounting holes in the blank area provided.

How does raising my press improve the reloading experience?

The 9¼-inch elevation puts your press at a more comfortable working height, reducing the need to bend or reach awkwardly. This improves your sight line to all reloading operations and significantly decreases fatigue and strain during long reloading sessions, allowing you to maintain focus on safety and precision.

Can I remove this stand if I need my bench space for something else?

Yes. The stand can be bolted permanently to your bench, or you can use C-clamps for quick removal when you need the bench for other tasks. Choose the mounting method that works best for your workspace and workflow.
