I may have a friend make up a few rotors and it looks like a 3/4" od hopper tube. This was in the box full of Lee 1000 stuff I picked up last week.

Anyone know how it was mounted?

Jees. I have the hopper but no cover. I was expecting a long thin tube.

thanks

I have that Bonanza powder measure. Bonanza also sells (sold ?) a large capacity powder funnel with cover. The latter (NB : its underside also doubles as a primer flipper) fits both tools.

i think perhaps you have one of the old pistol measures. they made these for throwing a specific load such as 2.7 gr of bullseye for the 38 wadcutter. they weren't mounted but rather you held the measure and went over the loading block by moving the measure - never were a big seller

I think the current Forster hopper also fits the older one. I can see how the bracket works. The thumbscrew holds the hopper and the bracket on. There's a small split pin in the back that stops the bracket from turning.

Those powder cylinders looks exactly the same as the once from the RCBS Little Dandy. I also have a Bonanza Benchrest Powder measure and it is extremely consistant.

with the hopper installed.

now how do you suppose that could have happened?? clarence had a lot of ideas, but not all were his

It was mounted with a little piece of bent flat iron with a thumb screw. By the way, Forster has the hoppers, and some brass rotors. I bought a few rotors a year ago. Give them a call. Grant.
