Hunting w/ loose powder

flybub · 07-02-2009, 10:32 AM

Hey everyone. I am looking for a speed loader for loose powder (BH209)for hunting this year. Last yearI used the T/C 4-in-1 speedloader and I dumped more powder on the ground than I got in the barrel throwing off my load. Any of you use something easier to load? If I could only find a tube like the T/C U-View powder measure or something similar with a tapered end on it. Any of you have any suggestions?

I use powder tubes like the one Lane sells. I just wrap my index finger around the top of the barrel and pour. I might spill a couple grains at most.

same here.. powder tubes from Lane. Also it helps to practice with them same tubes on the range so it becomes more second nature to you.

Hi All,

I have used for years enpty 300 Win Mag cases, they will hold 90 GV of Pyr. I use a 3/4 inch section of a bicycle iner tube like a bigg rubber bant over the length of the case. these are water tight with the iner tube over them and the 300 case has a built in funnel. Now that I hunt with a custome smokeless muzzle loader I have LaneNebraska" Vials. They are the best

Yup...Lane

Is the diameter of those tubes smaller than the T/C speedloaders? What is it about Lane's that seperate them from all the others? By the way: I guess Lane's is the way I should go
