My Hornady works well and is accurate. I also use a Harrels powder measure, throw a light charge and trickle up. I have checked my Hornady dispenser with my beam scales quite a fwe times and it is accurate.

I've had good results with .223 Remington, 6X47Lapua, 6BRA, 22BR and .243 AI. The .243AI is a barrel burner. I try not to overheat the barrels. If I shoot 100-150 rounds in a day I'm satisfied.
