Hello all,
I bought a reloading package and there's a powder measure that has no adjustment and it has a 1 stamped on the drum. Is this for black powder?
Thanks

Probably not if the hopper is plastic.

Black powder and plastic hoppers are fully compatible.Originally Posted by nseries
I believe the drum is the actual powder measure. You replace the drum with the one that throws the charge you need. In this its similar to the rcbs Lil Dandy. Its a smokeless powder measure. I suspect black powder would be a very small charge.
Thank you all for the help.
I appreciate it.

so theres a changeable/adjustable insert in the drum? ----should be able to do a charge big enough for a lot of BP rounds?
Plastic isn't really a problem, or at least it hasn't been for me. Just empty the hopper when you're done, no matter what powder use.
Warning: I know Judo. If you force me to prove it I'll shoot you.
