InLine Fabrication Ultramount Riser System for The Hornady Single Stage Classic Lock-N-Load Press

What a great riser for my press, no more hunched over back and banging my knee on the press. This thing is built like a tank and I would highly recommend this over the Lyman universal stand I previously owned. They are model specific so make sure you choose the right one. Stop thinking about it and just buy it.

The stand is easy to put together. An extra set of hands makes it easier, but is by no means required. The fit and finish are superb. Mine came with a flaw in the coating on one of the legs that appears to have been from some rubbing of the material during shipping. The parts were well packaged though, and I had two stands in one box. I am sure the damage is not a common thing.I have two negative points: First, though the stands do elevate the press, you still need to place the stand near the edge of the bench, just like you do without the stand. I had hoped to have a place to rest my elbows. That is still not possible. The stands also DOUBLE the foot print of your press, so make sure you are willing and able to spare the extra room. The small single stage I have now looks huge and takes up way more room that progress did before the stand. I have a single stage, a MEC sizemaster, and a progressive on a bench that is 8 feet long. I used to have plenty of room between the three that two or three loaders could be working at once. Not possible any more. One at a time only. Lastly, I don't think they are worth the cost. Not because of the quality, they are built like a tank. Great craftsmanship. It is that when I compare it to the cost of my other reloading equipment vs the benefit I gained from it, it just doesn't seem worth losing the extra space and the amount of money spent. At $40 or $50 price point, and if you could move the press away from the edge of the bench, I would have said it was 5 stars. I will keep them though, because the extra cost if worth supporting small business.

It is incredibly easy to assemble, sturdy when assembled, but there is one thing that is bothering me about the design.The top plate does not mate wth the entire mounting deck of the press. There is about half an inch to 5/8" of the aluminum mounting surface that is exposed.It might not matter, but it looks odd, and in my mind would seem to change the fulcrum and could add stress to the exposed area when torquing down on larger cartridges.

Fit finish are excellent. Zero issues with mounting press to pre-drilled holes. Easy assembly, but you should take care to have a third hand available if you want to make sure not to scrape the parts against each other when you're putting it together. Came in 4 seperate stamped pieces. Came with appropriate bolts, etc, for assembly. I believe it even came with the necessary allen wrench. I mentioned scraping the plates together, but the powder coated finish is by no means delicate. I'm just finicky and don't like to leave marks...As for the use- plenty of people cover it's application on the bench and have video tutorials that I found useful and accurate. Quality product and addresses the issue it is made to solve very well.

Always wanted to elevate my press so I could open drawers below it. Works like a charm. Still a bit expensive though.

What an excellent product! This thing is sturdy as hell, stands on its own, looks great, and is worth every penny. I have the Dillon Precision “Strong Mount” for my XL650, and I wish I had waited til I saw how nice this mount is, because it is a far superior design. It is also pretty awesome that you can swap out the top plates for different mounts.

It’s functional straight forward

I bought the riser so I could continue to use the drawer on my work bench. I thought about it for a while, seems overpriced for what it is. You can buy a press for about the same amount, but I bought it anyways and now I am glad I did. It is built like a tank and everything went together easily. Now I can continue to use my drawer.
