Default RE: Confused about crimping bullets

The Reloader 19 that I was using is an extruded type powder, and I can see how several grains would not be "swept" uniformly into the hopper as I was turning the handle to dispense it. Due to the shape of the grains, it does not all uniformly flow. It wasn't off by a huge amount; 2 out of three times I had to either add a couple/several or remove a couple/several grains to get the scale to balance perfectly at the set weight.

But hey, I'm not complaining. Beats trying to measure each charge by spooning it on the scale. I like the Lee equipment overall.

Kindest Regards,
