Plastic Scoop for Powder Scale

[Killick]

I have 2-60cc scoops but might try the 70cc as I will rarely get a wild granule.

...pulled the trigger...so to speak.

Quick tip, we used to use a lot of these to provide the operations people with something to collect a sample while processing. They come in all different sizes (volumes) and are intended mostly for single use, then disposal. The companies that make them will send out a free sample, sometimes one, but occasionally three or five, for evaluation purposes. If you have a sense as to how many CCs you'd want, you can get some gratis.
Or talk to a friend in the bulk pharma processing world, and ask him to hook you up.

If I am loading 40 grains of H4350, about what “CC” size should I get?

I learned a trick at the cast boolits site. Many over there will load handgun cartridges with a home made scoop made form a used cartridge case. For my hand gun loading I use a 9mm case that I drill a hole through the extractor groove and super glue in a brazing rod about 6 inches long for a handle, some glue a popsicle stick flat to the base. The empty case can be ground on a grinder or belt sander to give the volume you need. A larger case could be used, even large rifle cases to fit your need.

Lee used to have a CC to gn table. Don't know if it's still available.

My scoops are strictly for use with an A&D laboratory scale. No dipping involved.

Plastic tends to like static electricity

Either would work. I load 54.8gr N555. Do you use an A&D scale? I taped a ‘shim’ to the platen in order to get the scoop closer to the powder drop opening to avoid granule ‘bounce’.

Isn't the Lee powder dippers same thing??? I have a complete set, can use for powder or lead shot.
