[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 1917834, member: 11011"] this is my opinion . I have a powder throw or drop , whatever you want to call it , I don't use it . it's not accurate enough to just dump the powder without weighing it . it takes way to much time getting it set up for a certain load , then you have to go through the set up again when loading a different powder , or for a different cartridge . I just use the cheap Lee powder spoon set , and pour the powder on my scale . you can pick a spoon that will weigh a light powder charge that's close and then use a trickler to bring your powder charge up to spec . if I'm using a spoon that is very close to my desired weight , and I go over a little , I use my tweezers to pick a few kernels off the scale .my large capacity loads that I don't have a spoon big enough , I'll use a spoon that gives a 50% load and use two scoops . these are quick , easy , and $15 for the set .
