it meters well. Like it just pours out.

I'm using a rcbs nothing special. Throw 5 loads on the scale to get it dialed in. An then load 100+ without ever checking it. Just keep topping it off

The only powder thrower I have used I didn’t like with ball powder is the plastic Lee perfect measure. It throws consistent charges fine but the powder leaks by the mechanism and starts to bind it a bit and it also leaked. It meters like water so pretty much any will work just fine.

I had the same with the Lee PPM. I tried a Lyman Brass Smith powder measure and it’s been excellent.

You are not the first one that has recommended the Lyman brass smith, I think I will try one of those and the cheaper Lee for stick powder and be in for only $100 and see how I do.

Thanks for the help. 24.5 and 25 gr loads looked like this. 25 degrees out mag length coal. Groups were much larger under 24.5

What rifle and mag? Just wondering if it’s a standard mag like a tikka factory or something else

Awesome thank you. Just got my tikka 223 and am hoping it’ll shoot well like yours

I’d be surprised if it doesn’t, out of several different combos I have loaded only one has shot greater than 1.5 Moa for 30 rounds with the slightest bit of work. The one that shot worse has shotgun patterned and hasn’t been consistent in the slightest, the bullets are garbage in both mine and my wife’s 223.
