I have this can crusher that has a hopper on top, you can load 6 cans and rack the handle to get a crush and a fresh feed. Here I was, load, rack handle, can drops into receptacle, repeat. Hmmm.. Dillon 550, insert bullet, rack handle, completed round drops into receptacle, repeat. I'm not sure where this is going...but gotta make sure I don't get my rounds and cans mixed up.

My can crusher has a bucket on front and a backhoe attachment on the back and is kabota orange. Throw cans on concrete pad, run BX across them several times, pick up with shovel, repeat. Only do cans once or twice a year and can do 100 lbs in about a 1/2 hour. I wish my reloader was that fast. Larry
 
Had a Texas friend visiting up here in Canada. He demonstrated this crushing method but did not realize our aluminum cans in Canada are probably twice the thickness of the American counterpart. Bruise lasted about two weeks with minimal blood loss. Good tqhing was that he had plenty of painkiller on board prior to injury.
