    Picked up the old Hornday pistol measure

    Picked up today for $38 a new unopened Hornady Pistol powder measure with 5 bushings. Wrote the owner how in the world it can be new and unopen. Lady said her family had a gun shop so she gets to sell anything discontinued. Interesting.

    Think i did good. Plan on setting it on a lee classic four hole press. Once in a while i want to load just a few bullets for my two mouse guns.

    Mine is made by Pacific which is before Hornady bought them out. I still use it all the time. I'd suggest weighing your charges as the bushings don't seem to be too close to the chart that I have. AND BTW the bushings are still available from Hornady though I suspect they don't make any up till they have enough orders. Had to wait a bit recently when I ordered a couple I didn't have.
