When I first started I used the dipper that came with my Lee loader but after I got a scale I found the load was so light that even if I heaped the dipper it was still lower than the chart says it was. I never was any good at getting consistent loads with the dippers but I like them for filling the pan on the scale then I trickle the load from there.

This is only for rifle loads with extruded powders, I use my Lyman powder measure for handgun loads. I bought a Lee perfect measure to use with extruded powders but I haven't tried it yet. I'm picky about rifle loads and I'll likely toss loads into the pan on the scale and trickle it up from there like with the dippers.

I guess the sort answer is no, get your scale fixed or replaced...
