I bought my first batch of reloading stuff off of a guy who used to be a benchrest shooter but got out of it. When I was looking at his stuff he specifically mentioned this powder measure but didn't really say anything about it.

Hi,
It's a Lyman 55 with a Culver Conversion!
Very nice!
I would be interested in that if you are looking to part with it!

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.

Janet Reno, killed more children at Waco, with Bill Clinton's permission, than Adam Lanza killed, at Sandy Hook.
The Culver was very popular with bench rest shooters, someone may want the measure.
Today they weigh the powder with one of the automatic scales.
Is yours serial numbered? Like this oneAttachment 133883
The ENEMY is listening.
HE wants to know what YOU know.
Keep it to yourself.
I think but don't hold me to it. Harrell Lyman conversion style? Before or after the Jone's version not sure, but good measure's and some are pricey.

As I was told when I was a child; your elders will make you smarter if you listen. Then when you are older your elders will teach you WISDOM.

No number. Just H.L Culver
That is what is known as a win.
Ok...I'll say it for you guys....Old timers?????????????????.....how about gracefully matured?......lol
Lol, excuse me Gracefully Matured.
So this measure is one to hang on to? I still use it just not as much as I did when I started since I have a Dillon. I still use it to throw a little under then trickle up to where I want to be on my "match" ammo.
I resemble that remark !!! Local BR shooter wouldn't leave for a match unless he had his Culver measure.

"It aint easy being green!"
it was an Idea that many thought was the best. its not any better than the 55, if its used right
most don't how to use a 55 correct. even the OLD Farts
a 55 will do 1gr every time for a 25acp IF it set right
How about sensibly seasoned?
