Lee Precision 900588-SSI Perfect Powder Measurer 90058 - multi, N/A

A slight variation at times with the flake powder sticking the the tube wall. A good value for money powder measure.

I had heard that this cheap little powder measure was good and now that I own one I have to agree that it is excellent. The design is brilliant and it works as well as units several times this price. I cannot fault it.Easy to fill, easy to empty, easy to adjust. The hopper has a close valve and lifts off easily. Well done Lee.

Used it on nitro and black powder, it does leak a little when in use, but I knew this before I bought it, and by a little I mean a tiny amount. I just put paper down to catch it and tip it back after loading. That’s my only gripe, other than that it’s a cracking and accurate little loader for a very cheap price. 4 stars because of the slight leakage.

The accuracy will alter a little depending on how full the hopper is, I generally fill it up, then calibrate it. When I'm using it, as the powder level gets to about half I'll top it up again.Found doing this it'll generally stay within .1 of a grain which is accurate enough.If you let it get nearly empty it will then start dropping the load maybe .2/.3 of a grain which isn't the end of the world anyway but better to be more precise.

Very good easy to use and accurate to .200 of a grain 👍

Provides much better accuracy than my mec 600.

This item does work, but it's fiddly to use, and not as sturdy as the pictures would have us believe. With small loads (< 4 gr) it's accurate to within about 0.2 gr either side, which isn't great, but probably is as good as you can get without a trickler. The "micrometer" adjustment does allow for very fine control of the load, but the calibration doesn't mean much and, with small loads, the measured weight of the load does tend to drift with time. So you probably can't rely on the micrometer reading for setting the load -- you still need to weight, at least periodically.The metal stand is a bit springy, so the whole assembly moves a little in operation. The unit needs to be fastened to a heavy or rigid base, but that alone is not enough to stop the wobble.The biggest problem I have with this unit is that the operating handle is neither spring-loaded, nor long enough to push up cleanly with one hand. Both the upward and the downward motion are against friction, so I need to change my hand position with each load. This doesn't sound like a big deal, but it rapidly gets irksome. It feels as if bits of powder get into the rotating mechanism, because the action isn't really as smooth as it could be.The spout is too large to load small cases directly -- you need a funnel or something.All in all, it's OK, but would probably be better for large cases, where the inaccuracy in the load is less noticeable. I am using this, but I can't say I'm entirely happy with it.

I've been using the lee powder measure that came with my reloading kit and was amazed by the repeatability and accuracy of the device bearing in mind the price. I reload different calibres so bought this to suppliment the one that came with the kit to save having to readjust for each load.
