[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 937541, member: 25383"] I do the same with my Lyman #55, but use a 4" clear drop tube. I actually use a tube made for .223 centerfires that has a machined bevel in the I.D. Some have this and some don't. I then put a line on the tube to see if I got a full charge or a double. The Lyman will throw ball powder in a two tenth grain window (+/- one tenth grain) about 85% of the time. Funny thing is that I throw ball powders a lot with my Harrell, but have not put any data together with it for pistol powders! It would be a little more consistent than the Lyman, but not by a huge amount. The Harrell will do an honest +/- .10 grain everytime I do a charge, and is probably a little better than that. I simply check every eighth or tenth charge on my Pact electronic scale, and a deviation is a rare thing. Like you said learn to be consistent. gary [/QUOTE]
