Help with Lee

Does anyone have any experience using AA2 powder in the Lee Pro Auto-Disk Powder Measure with the Adjustable Charge Bar? I have seen both good and bad reviews about this combination.

Never used #2, use #5 in the Lee Pro with ACB and it meters very well,
at least for the grains I drop.
I do know when I used Titegroup in the ACB (or small disks), that with the
smaller amounts it was not very consistent. Had to watch for squib loads
all the time.

I use it every week

AA#2 is a fine grained ball powder and it works great with the Lee
adjustable powder bar

AA #2 flows through my Lee Pro Auto-Disk like water. I've never had it "bridge" or fail to completely throw a charge, even very small ones using the Micro-Disk cavities.

AA #2 does tend to leak through the cracks a little more than other powers, but not to an excessive degree. This is not unusual at all for the very small spherical powders.

I don't use the adjustable charge bar very much, as the fixed cavities are usually close to what I'm looking for, and they physically CAN'T change during a reloading session.
