Guys,
In keeping the measures hopper half full....
Another trick for getting consistent throws (which I also learned using an old Lyman 55 measure) is to find a small-medium size kitchen funnel with about a 3/8 to 1/2 inch opening at the bottom of the spout. Set this into the top of your empty powder measure (cap is off, obviously). Note that the spout end should be about 2 inches up from the bottom of the measures hopper. Pour in whatever powder you are using until the funnel cone is about 3/4 full. The funnel now acts as a baffle that keeps the powder in the measures hopper at a constant level. By just refilling the funnel cone peridically, I get rock solid throw results with just about all powders, including IMR's.
Just my thoughts guys....
