May be a little homemade but it saves space.

Doubled up wafer is a good idea-I was thinking 2x10 under your front edge would add stiffness but the wafer looks well planned and executed for that purpose. Lots of brass to get filled up there!
 
Two 1/2 or 3/8 inch plywood glued and screwed together. Then 2x4s where the stress is applied.
 
When moving around for work we lived in a trailer house for a couple of years. I used an old Black and Decker workmate with a 3/4 inch plywood c clamped to the top with the edge reinforced with a 2x4 as a reloading bench. It’s whatever works for you to keep you in ammo.
 
I might wish to clamp it to the saw horses just to keep the backside from tipping up if you really have to bear down on that handle?

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
