RCBS for one. Or even the old Lyman #55 measure. I have been using an RCBS for over 25 years, and found it to be very consistent, even with Unique.

You can get a little trouble from the longer IMR type powders bridging, but I always throw a grain or two light, and bring it up with a trickler.

I will admit to being biased, I don't use Lee. Wonder why? Just look at this forum, and you will see a lot of posts about "how do I get my Lee xxxxx to work?"

Lee tools are cheapest, and can work, but I have always found them more of a pain in the .....than other brands. Lyman and RCBS cost a little more, but have given me less aggravation. Your choice, but for me the little bit of extra money is worth it.
