    Hmmm good to know markm! I've been loading tons of H4895 & IMR4064 lately but have plenty of AA2520 & H335 so will give those a try when the time comes.

    I just run small grain stick like H322 and XBR on my Dillon because it meter pretty good. 4064 won't work on my 550b powder measure.

    So even though the Chargemaster tests my patience at times, it's what I have to do to run large kernel extruded powder.

    You'll quickly become adept at shaking two or three kernels out of the pan by hand when your charge weight is just a little bit over. At least I have, I think.

    Oh absolutely. It's an art unto itself.

    Shit. I was loading IMR3031 the other day, and I just set the damned thing 2/10s low. It was perfect. Almost all of them hit 2/10s high, and thus right where they should have been.

    I'm so cheap I never moved from the powder measure + trickler for stick powder.

    I still have that yellow electric trickler that I dragged out of the closet. It's starting to look really good.
