Hi Rick
I just held my gun up against some 3/4 oak plank I had & it was trial & error
Took no time to make & makes loading the gun on its own a treat
I load off the gun now & still use the stand to hold the pistol on the shooting point while I am off using the loading press.
I'll get up in the loft & measure it out for you tomorrow if you like
Cheers
Roy
