How well does unique flow thru a powder measure? I usually use unique for low velocity target loads. I am thinking about buying a progressive press and was curious if the flake type powders will flow well and throw consistent charges?
Thanks for the info.

I've got Unique in my Dillon RL550 right now. I've loaded a couple of hundred or more of 8gr-10.5gr in the .44mag and never had a problem. I do check every one of the first ten to verify and then about every tenth one or so after that.
I'm getting right at 900 fps with 8.5 Unique out of a S&W 629, 4". Pretty accurate and little to no leading. I use Lar's Carnuba Red.
