[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 324051, member: 20245"] Hello, I just bought a lee powder measure kit, because I have read several times that some of the most accurate loads are made using volume measures. When I weigh the volume-measured charges I get different weights all the time, with the lee dippers it varies by up to 1.5grains... Using the case activated powder measure on my hornady lock n load ap press the charges still vary by .1 grains. Is this acceptable? I will do accuracy testing next weekend to see how accuracy is. is it normal for weight to vary like this? What can I do to get more uniformity? Thanks, Oliver Lottermann [/QUOTE]
