Stick powder & V3 trickler tube

Seems like IMR4064 gets piled up and stuck inside the V3 autotrickler tube and it won't trickle out.
Anyone else with this issue and what is the solution.

Thank you
 
I cut a drinking straw down and slide it inside the tube of my RCBS auto and that helped reduce clumps a lot.
 
I’m not familiar with IMR4064 , so far the only powder I have tried in mine is H4350. Not sure how the stick size compares to 4350 but I had to fiddle a bit with it.
 
Try running your little hopper a little low. Just over the pick up tube.
 
Thank you all for your replies. It seems like i need to get used to my machine. I am new to the V3 family.

Trial and error, trial and error... repeat, don't give up, find the sweet spot. Then it is easy pizzy.
 
If you have not tried adjusting the trickle tube up some, try doing that and see if it helps.
I was thinking he might need less incline but if stuck I would try changing the angle in both directions. My V3 has worked well from N130 (finest) up to RL33 (coarsest).

True, he may need to, I failed to read the stuck in the tube part. My bad. Reverse what I said though. ;)
