Before I got a powder measure (1975), I used a set of Lee powder dippers to load everything, pistol and rifle. I still have them. For the rifle, I used to throw the powder into the powder scale with the dippers and trickle the rest. As I recall, it always took about the same amount of powder to balance the scale. Never weighed the dipper charges, but the dippers seemed to work very consistently. If I didn't have a couple of powder measures now, I would still use them.
