I use a cheap red plastic trickler, I forget the brand.
I filled the base with lead shot for stability; it came with a plug for the purpose.

I am looking at the power tricklers but they are awful nervous about black powder which is my main use for a trickler. (I load smokeless powder target loads with a PACT digital dispenser. I had rather not get black in all its nooks and crannies.)
