I've noted several well-respected BP sites sell the Harrells precision powder measures for Black Powder work. I own two of them already, and it struck me that the "BP" measures and the "normal" measures are exactly the same unit.
HARRELLS BP MEASURE (http://www.buffaloarms.com/Detail.aspx?PROD=159992&CAT=4006)
If there is a difference, it's that the BP measure also comes w/ an aluminum powder resevoir/bottle as well as the standard poly bottle. It would also make sense as the Harrell's Measures are made w/ an aluminum body/brass rotating drum
And then I note that Brownells sells Harrells measures (the same ones again) with the big warning label. "DO NOT THROW BLACK POWDER WITH THIS OR ANY OTHER HARRELL MEASURE!"

What gives ? (if anyone knows)
