They work great cost a bunch but I feel worth it , I have head that if you use the same stroke they all work , this handles 4350 like you can not believe

If the Bruno has the "click" adjustments, there is your answer. Benchrest shooters use these because they load many rounds and do NOT weigh. For my load development and for hunting, I generally weigh everything, just to reduce another variable. If it handles stick powders well, then that is another plus.I will probably get a Harrell just because I really need to be able to take it to the range and the price is not excessive.

To Peter!!!
I tried a Harrel did not like it I found that it was not a constant measure.it was all over the place i sent it back.
Bill

What exactly will you be using the measure for? Is this for competitive shooting, hunting ammo, or experimental reloading?

Getting consistantly thrown charges is more dependant on the operator as the equipment, hmm, same goes for punching holes in paper.

Mr. BillR, I took the internals out of my Bruno Measure and replaced them with ones made by Jerry Hensler. It works great now. For benchrest powder the Harrels works just as well at a cheaper price. I think that you need to weigh the other powders for other disciplines and hunting. Butch

Nesika made a click type powder measure and that's the one that Bruno purchase the right too. I know there has been some changes made by different gunsmiths.

To Buchlambert who made the product replacement for the bruno and do you have a contact , I do thank you in case I ever want to do as you have alreaqdy done
Thanks Bill

I got to thinking about that after I posted and also would like to know. thanks Tom

Jerry Hensler's contact was jhensler@satx.rr.com. Jerry redesigned the hopper and used a micrometer adjustment. The conversion is for a PPC case capacity only. Probably from 26-33 grains would be the max range. I believe that Bruno bought the rights to the measure from Rosenthal who first came out with it. Jerry is working with Jerry Stiller of Stiller Precision Firearms to manufacture a complete powder thrower. I don't know how far along that project is coming. Hensler was the idea man on Stiller's drop port receiver that I absolutley love for BR competition. Butch

Thanks Butch you maybe right on just getting a Harrell powder measure if only going for the ppc case capacity. I saw a picture of the one that Speedy sold on Benchrest.com I haven't had a problem with mine yet and I don't know if Bruno's new ones are like the orginal ones as he had an ad out trying to buy some of the old ones kind of figure he was trying to copy some parts or something. I've been known to be wrong but I was sure Nesika was the one that was making the measure that Bruno got maybe they made them under a license agreement. Not important anyway. Well good luck

I think Harrell's is probably the most popular, at least with benchrest shooters. Stick powders like IMR4064 and IMR4831 will always be problematic, but most powders meter very accurately in the Harrell. Best wishes.

Neil Jones powder measurer = pricy but worth every single penny. In the benchrest world it seems to be the one which others are judged against.

Mr. Outlawsix, I didn't know that! Butch

I can't find a Neil Jones in my searches , have you a address?
Thanks ,in fact I have never heard of him.
Bill

Billr, send me a PM and I will give you the contact that has 2or3 new Neil Jones measures. He may just like to get rid of one or more. Neil Jones company is called Custom Products. Butch
