[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 657329, member: 10755"] I'll have to agree with J E Custom 100%. Usually the measure is just screwed into one of the stations on the press, most are threaded for 7/8"-14 threads. I, too, found that separating the powder measure and mounting it solidly on a stand to the bench gave me the most consistent charging, but I also use the 'swirl charge' method of pouring the powder charge. I dump from the measure into my scales poring pan, and then 'swirl' the charge into the case via a correctly sized funnel. This above method gives me the room to use charges of RE25 that would normally spill out when dumped 'as is' from the measure. The Harrel is quite expensive, I have one, but have found that my Redding 3BR is just as consistent and will meter most powders to +/- .1gr with the right technique. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
