Thanks, PawPaw. I did try adjusting the tension screw. Didn't seem to make any difference. Since I posted my first message, I emptied the hopper, wiped it out and then tried some IMR 4895, which is a very coarse powder (compared to WSF, which is pretty fine). Again, over about 40 throws, the weigh varied by as much as a grain.

I may try the disassembly you recommend.
