[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 2626508, member: 3230"] I have a few powder measures to include the RCBS Uniflow and Redding BR-2. I have two Lee measures that I have set up for .44 and .357 Mag. My Uniflow is set up for .45 ACP. None of these throw flake powders such as Unique or Universal very accurately, but it is good enough for me. The BR2 has a micrometer setting, which I would highly recommend - I take pictures of various powder/charge settings so I can easily replicate (the 88 Retumbo setting is for two throws). The Reddings will throw small charges quite accurately but I haven't gone below 25 grains. To throw heavy charges, I just charge twice - no issues. If you throw spherical powders, you will be amazed how consistently they throw spherical powders or fine grain extruded such as 8208. I shoot over 1000 rounds of .223 every summer shooting PDs and there is no way I am scaling every charge. [/QUOTE]
