I am sure someone here loads 223's on their loadmaster. What powder dispenser works best with extruded powders like imr-3031?
Thanks
Joe

Joe, my experience has been that the Lee Pro Auto-disk with the double disk works best. I don't use these powder measures on the LM but on Hornady LnL AP's. (I do own a LM but I could never get it to run consistently.) I actually have Hornady measures gathering dust and use the Lee Pro auto-disks exclusively for reloading. I found that I have better consistency with extruded powders when using 2 disks to get the desired weight than using a single disk. I have read that some folks have even modified their units to use 3 disks but none of the rifle cartridges I load require so much powder that I need to go this route.

I use the autodisk pro with double disks.
