Using stick powder with a Dillion 550B press?

[jeff43]

Any of y'all that have a Dilion progressive press use any IMR 4895,4320,3031 or Varget?Ive heard they don't feed stick powder well. Edited August 10, 2015 by jeff43

I gave up trying to measure those powders with my 550B many years ago. I don't know of any powder measures that can meter large grains accurately. I use an old Belding and Mull to get close to weight and then finish with an equally old RCBS trickler. This is not a about speed, it's about accuracy. And safety.

Pssh. Where's the fun in that? :D

I don't know if I as a lowly Lee user am cool enough to read a Dillon post let alone reply to one....

 

 

but my Lee auto disk does Varget pretty good.

Yeah, I use a RCBS Uniflo thrower and it does great. Been thinking about getting a Dillion 550B
