MARKAVELI Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I just remove my pins and dump into another powder measure tap a few times, I might just poor into a different powder measure if I wonna use the same powder on a different caliber...

Thanks Yes, leave it on the powder die. pull the two pins, remove tool head and dump it. Nothing easier than that, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the way I do it. I had only one powder dispenser for a long time. Even with two, I find myself changing powders more than I'd like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g56 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Yes, leave it on the powder die. pull the two pins, remove tool head and dump it. Nothing easier than that, right? I've been doing that for 26 years, it doesn't get any easier than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Just buy another tool head and powder hopper for each powder you will be loading..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything easier would involve a lit match. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyT Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I don't understand the problem. You simply remove teh toolhead with the powder measure and dump the powder out - what could be simpler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
