    I wipe down the inside of my plastic hoppers with a dryer sheet, it seems to help with the static electricity.

    10 in the order of frequency of use:

    Lee Classic (ease of setup and consistent measurements for a most powder types)
    Auto Drum (consistent measurements for most powders, the goto for the 550.)
    PPM (consistent measurements for most powders)
    3 Auto disks (preset for specific pistol rounds)
    Quick Measure (the only one that can is consistent for 4350)
    55 (my goto Unique measure)
    Dillon (good measure but just used for 223)
    Harrell Schuetzen (Beautiful, ease of setup and consistent for ball and flake but rarely used, mostly for 32acp)
    B&M (used to be the favorite for 4350)

    Not counting homemade and Lee dippers

    Each caliber I do has its own powder measure. So I have 14 dillon
    I do have a Lyman auto measure for load testing.

    Don't like being hammered by the Cast Boolits Staff, then don't be a nail.

    1 Dillon
    1 vintage Redding Master Measure
    2 Lee modified with billet aluminum charge bars, NOTHING works as good as these!
    Got a .22 .30 .32 .357 .38 .40 .41 .44 .45 .480 or .500 S&W cylinder that needs throats honed? 9mm, 10mm/40S&W, 45 ACP pistol barrel that won't "plunk" your handloads? 480 Ruger or 475 Linebaugh cylinder that needs the "step" reamed to 6° 30min chamfer?

    Had to stop and think, I'd forgotten about my Dillons.
    2 Dillons
    1 Lee PPM, cannot be beat for the price.
    1 Redding master, which for the life of me I'll never understand why no one can make something like this today? It's perfect, literally perfect! You can throw less than 1/2 a grain up to, I honestly have no idea! It's smooth, consistent, doesn't leak and you don't have to buy anything else to make it do this or that, it's awesome! Sorry, I'll quit bragging it up.

    4 pro auto disk, (one on each pistol caliber turret head), RCBS Uniflow, Lyman 55. I like the hopper volume of the uniflow but the charge adjustment of the 55.

    I had 3 but after years of never using 2 of them I sold them on Ebay. Then I used the money to buy a new Rock Chucker Supreme. I kept my old reliable RCBS Uniflow with 2 cylinders, so now I have only one.

    Just recently added another Ideal No.5, and re-discovered a set of Lee dippers I had forgotten about. I am now firmly entered into the "More Than Five" category, and I've just seen an older (orange) Lyman No.55 that's looking for a new home that would look pretty good next to my grey No.55...

    This is a sickness!
