    Aww ****! I just remembered one. Move one vote for five to the 'need help' group.

    I see that the "More than 5" percentage is going down slightly due to the wusses amongst us... maybe those of us with 12 or more could be counted twice?? Just sayin'...

    Well Froggie, I guess we could cont you twice. It seems that once people get to 5 measures, they just can't stop. Nothing wrong with that.

    They multiply if left alone in the dark, but only after you have two. Got an old Saeco which is my favorite, a Unipro, two Lil' Dandys, a Lyman 55, a Belding and Mull and 6 or 7 Dillons.

    It's not that I can't count high enough, I just don't have that MUCH spare time.

    I voted shortly after the poll was put up but didn't post any info. I have 2 RCBS and a Lee(unused). Since then I have read(and printed) Rocky Raab's review of the Quick Measure. I'm thinking seriously about acquiring one. It would seem to solve the problem of cutting grains of powder. I am always concerned when I have to muscle the handle thru a grain of powder.

    I just missed an old Pacific pistol measure with two rotors that sold on flea-Bay. That would have put me somewhere over three times the "more than 5" powder measures. Is there an upper limit? Do I need an intervention?
