Redding BR3 Pwder Measure Question

ChrisLe · March 22, 1999, 08:53 PM

Hello All,
I've been using the BR3 measure successfully mounted on my bench. I've since begun using a turret press (Lyman TMagII) and would like to mount the BR3 on the turret. I'd like to mount the BR3 on lymans powder-through expanding/belling die. My question is as follows, the BR3 has a see through drop tube that is not removable thereby making it impossible to mount on any powder through die. Anybody successfully mount a BR3 on a turret press in a way that works successfully? Someone suggested I cut the drop tube but I would pefer to avoid it if possible.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

You might see if a Lee "Perfect" powder measure can be mounted. It looks like a tinker toy, but is very consistent. I think it can be mounted on the Lee turret and progressive... That would be better than modifying your Redding, and around $25, not too expensive.
