A powder measure that dumps charge weights of the correct stick powder with a 2/10ths grain spread will get sub half MOA groups through 300 yards if the right components are used, assembled the right way and shot in a good rifle. Exact charge weights are not on my "must do" list for good reliability and accuracy of reloaded ammo for use at less than 500 yards.

A good, low cost beam scale is good enough to set the powder measure to throw powder charges.
