Just got one recently. Loaded some .357 mag cast loads with Universal (a flake powder) and it worked pretty well. Been loading some .223 Rem with it this week using W748 (ball powder) and it leaks quite a bit of powder around the drum. The powder throws are somewhat inconsistent as well with 748, usually +/- .2 gr but get an occasional throw that is .5 gr or more off the mark. It works OK I guess, but it's not "perfect".
