    Uniflows are junk. Send it to me with the $20.00 fee and I'll dispose of it for you. ..................No, really I will. You'll never see it again and never hear any more complaints about this particular one.

    Cool Lower cost remedy

    I can dispose of it for only 12.99! My overhead costs are lower in South Texas. Send it over and I'll handle the rest!

    I use to not respect the RCBS dispensers very much. Out of curiosity I ran a study on a RCBS and a Harrel. I threw charges of Reloader 15 with each (using the technique that works best for me), weighed each charge and ran a T-Test on the numbers.

    The T-Test showed there were no significant difference between the measures. However, the RCBS had a lower standard deviation and a lower extreme spread than the Harrel.

    I did not believe the test and reran it with the same results.

    Talking

    c3d4b2, the key word is technique. I believe a lot of people here do not try different ways with their powder measure to see what works with a particular type of powder.

    I agree that technique matters. I have spent time with the various techniques to get the most consistent results. I imagine I would get better consistency if I would use ball powders instead of stick powders.

    I have used several powder measures and have not had more success with one type over the other. I have read that the best measure for stick powders is the Lee. I have one, but have not got around to running tests with it.

    I throw charges with my Uniflow, check them on my scale, and then trickle up until it reads right. Kind of slow, but it works for rifle charges loaded on a single stage.

    For pistol loads on my progressive, I use Bulleye. Once the measure is set and I start rolling, there is very little variation. Bulleye runs through my Uniflow like poop through a goose.
