which powder measure ?

I have seen the powder measures where the measure hooks up to a scale and dispenses the powder charge you program in. Which is the one to get that works good Hornady, RCBS etc ?

I have the RCBS ChargeMaster 1500 and it works very well. I have never seen or used the Hornady so ..... no comment.

^ +1. I bought the Chargemaster because after looking at reviews people seemed to have more good things to say about it than the Hornady.

Got the Hornady and it's fine.

I have the RCBS ChargeMaster 1500 and I really like it. Well worth the $$ IMO.

There's also some instructions somewhere on-line about how to re-program the 1500 to considerably speed up the load process without sacrificing accuracy, I tweaked mine and it sure helped.
