I checked out all the dispenser type systems from Lyman, RCBS, and Pact. For what it's worth here's what I found out. 1)The Lyman is still slow and a hassle to clean out when changing powders. 2)The RCBS Powder Pro/Dispenser is slow, easier to clean out and very accurate. 3)Pact is the manufacturer of RCBS, so the same applies. 4)My solution. The Pact Digital Precision Powder Scale is the same as RCBS Powder Pro. A very nice digital scale, probably the best out there. I bought it. Instead of buying the Dispenser which costs $190 and is slow, I bought the new RCBS Electronic Trickler. If you search around you can find them for $50-$60. You drop a charge with a measure or dipper into the scale pan, then hit dispense on the trickler and it tops off the charge to your desired weight. Very accurate, and fast. It couples to a Pact Digital Precision Powder scale or a RCBS Powder Pro just like the dispenser. I use Lee dippers to get within 6 grains and the trickler automatically tops it up to my desired weight, always within .1 grain. Fast, cheaper, better, at least IMHO.

I had the Pact dispenser and sold it.Did not like re-calibrating for each powder and changing powders was a bitch.I kept the scale and it has to be recalibrated about every 10 minutes and I do not care for that either.Pact does have a good warranty though as Lyman's is only 1 year. | |||
