I found that I couldn't operate a dipper better than about +/- 0.3 grains. This made a big difference in cartridges that hold less than 5 grains...not so much in big cases like the .44 magnum. As you may have read in my other post, I bought a powder thrower and my consistency problem with my .38 snubby went away. It's much faster too.
