Best powder dispenser for smaller charges???
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good powder measure for smaller charge weights?

I am looking to work up some reduced loads requiring 3 to 5 grains.

What powder measure seems to throw the lighter charge weights with consistency using Trail Boss, Clays, or Unique?

Thanks!!!

for charges that light, I would always just trickle into the scale....otherwise the RCBS Chargemaster will dispense those small loads well....

As Butch refers, the Redding is available with interchagable "large" and a "small" measuring chambers. The small chamber works beautifully down to near zero. With the possible exception of the much more expensive Harrels product, the Redding is probably the most accurate and trouble-free powder measure on the market.

Thank you all for the replies!

I think I will go with the Redding and smaller pistol chamber.
