First: I firmly believe that the warnings about not using black powder in regular measures are a load of you know what. That said, I was looking to get a dedicated black powder measure, and figured I'd go whole hog and get the Lyman 55 with drop tube.
The good: Very well made, repeatable results, can also be used with smokeless.
The bad: The clamp isn't big enough; even tightened all the way down the dispenser still rotates on the clamp base quite easily. Worse still, using black powder leaves fines in the dispenser that cause a LOT of rust, FAST; to be fair, Lyman warns about this and says that after using black powder you should disassemble the drum and scrub out with alcohol.... ok.... and you do that and you've just degreased the metal as well as cleaned it, and it rusts even faster. Beyond cosmetics, this leads to a rotor that simply will NOT turn until the unit is taken apart and polished out. The only solution I've found is to spray it down with oil after using, but to prevent powder contamination, you then have to degrease again before use, a real pain. They really needed to either finish the interior surfaces with teflon or something, or else machine the base of the unit out of brass or aluminum or at very least stainless steel for this dispenser.
