Looks like an early Redding

Old Redding or even a C&H, if they make one, back in the fifties.

What makes you think it’s not a Hornady? Looks just like one of my Hornady/Pacific Reloaders.

++++ another vote for Hornady.
The screw for the reservoir is not original.

To bright for a redding.

I have the same Hornady Measure. It's about 30 years old.

Leave it to Hornady to make a powder measure with no reservoir.

It looks just like the Hornady measure that came with my Pro-jector progressive press many long years ago.

Give Hornady Tech Support a call

Finally got thru to the right lady who has been there 29 years..,no hoppers available but confirmed as a older hornady/pacific
thanks all.

Mine measures 1.886

 

[6MMsteve]

try McMaster Carr they may have something, something a tad smaller with an O-ring will work

Make an adapter for the hopper you have.

 

[silverstatesw]

that nails it , old pacific/hornady it is.
anyone need this as is for $20 shipped? It IS heavy...

3D printer should be able to build an adapter for an existing hopper.

Dramworx may be able to whistle up something for you, they make replacement Pyrex hoppers for all kinds of powder measures.
