Good powder dispenser?

robbor

I was thinking of getting another powder dispenser. I have the normal rcbs. Was thinking of a redding 10x. For small charges
 
^^^^^ this. I have two Harrels, Reddings, a RCBS, a couple Lyman's B and M's as well as some Lee perfects.
My favorite for small charges under 15 grains is the Lee Perfect. When the wiper wears out pitch it and get a new on for not much more than a burger and fries cost.
 
 
 
I try to overlap my powders to other pistol calibers in these times. My new study is pistol powder used in shotgun should times come to that.
 
I used Redding throwers in the 90s (not mine). When I started getting my own equipment, I bought an RCBS Uniflow in the late 90s and have been happy with it ever since. Regardless of which one you get, buy the beefed up (cast aluminum) mount for it. Having it solidly mounted to a sturdy, stable surface does a lot to help with the consistency of the charges.
 
Tryed a Lyman 55 and a little dandy in late 80's, turfed them and got a Redding BR3 (30?) about 1989 or 90. Mounted it onto a Jorgensen clamp to make it portable to the range and elsewhere. Been working just fine, top got loose or popped off one day, wrapped it with elec tape to hold it, been ticking along just fine. I pretty much only put ball powders thru it, beem mostly AA9, and 760 and 1680, 2230, likely 40k or so rounds on it now.
 
I have a Little Dandy, along with a boatload of rotors. Very handy and great for small charges. I eventually added a borosilicate hopper, which really classed up the joint.
 
i recently put my RCBS powder dispenser back to work . the hopper was broken . new one came but really did not want to fit . put it in the freezer for 30 minutes and if slipped right into place
