Looking for "integrated" powder measure for RCBS dies.

bbbigbossbb · September 20, 2009, 07:00 PM

Recently I bought a Lee Turret Press with the Lee Auto Disk Measure and a set of RCBS dies. The Powder Measure is meant to screw into the expander die and throw the charge as the casing is flared. This measure does not screw into the RCBS die and I was wondering if there was an equivalent/comarable item for RCBS dies. If there is not, what would you folks recommend to charge my cases with?

If you want to use the Lee powder measure to dispense powder while expanding the case mouth, you have to use a Lee expander die with it.

If you want to use a different PM, like the Uniflow or Hornady PM, you can purchase Hornady's case activated linkage, and powder through expander for it.

If you don't mind operating the PM manually, Lyman makes an powder through expander die too. But it only works with PMs that have a standard 7/8-14 thread (standard die thread).
