Right now today I am using a Lee Pro Auto Disk on a Lee 3 hole turret press to work up a load using a 200gr cast bullet and 6.0gr of Ramshot Silhouette. I don't recall which cavity it is but I suppose that really doesn't matter. Again my goal set point is 6.0 gr of this powder and at this time the measure hopper is about 1/4 the way full as I am now finishing off a bottle of powder and don't want to open a new jar yet.
Even with this low powder level in the Lee measures hopper it is holding consistently at 6.0gr. though as the hopper fill level diminishes I am seeing more loads at 5.95gr. and I can say this because while developing test loads I do weigh every dropped charge in my Lyman D5 balance scale that has a indicator at the pointer that shows over under in .1gr increments.
So more-so than the accuracy or consistency of the measure I have to surmise the consistency of the powder volume.
