I use a Lee Perfect Powder Measure. It has its quirks. Yes it leaks a tiny bit. (a sheet of paper under it helps to clean up any over spill.) It meters fine pistol powders like Bull's Eye, Titegroup, AA#9, Aliant 2400, and H-110 to within 0.1 grains with consitancy. Mine also meters most rifle powders well too. So far I have used AA 2015, H-335, Reloader7, and reloader 15, as well as Varget. All drop to within 0.1 grains most throws. Never had it off by more than 0.2 grains with those.

I will warn some powders like Unique, and HiSkor 800x do not meter well from any of the volumetric measures that I know of. Both meter like corn flakes from any measure.
