[QUOTE="Clint Idaho, post: 664777, member: 38561"] Depends a lot on the cut of the powder. While the dippers are fairly consistant with the finer cuts. They can vary a tad with the long extruded. Since I load mostly for accuracy, I just use the dippers when working up loads. Load the dipper, weigh the charge, load the case. Usually only load up 5 at a time working up loads. So I don't throw with the powder measure. My dippers are usually with in about 2 tenths of a grain with any powder if I fill them up and scrape off the excess. 2 tenths may not seem like much, but it do make a difference if your setting at the top end of pressure and also spreads the group with most of my rifles. So I weigh every thing with the rifles, throw with the powder measure for pistol calibers where close is good enough. [/QUOTE]
