I have used the Lee PPM for years on pistol calibers, I've run 2400, blue dot, 700x, power pistol, and bullseye through it. in charge weights from 2.5 grain's to 24 grain's. it does leak a little with the bullseye, but that is the only problem I've had and that's not enough to complain about. I learned that if I bang it at both ends of the stroke by stroking with more effort than one would think should be used it is very consistent. it has never varied more than 1/10 grn + or -. I do have an RCBS quick change powder measure that I use for rifle calibers and though it is better built, it is no more consistent than the PPM.
