[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 958487, member: 423"] [B]Powder Dispenser[/B] This is the tool with which you will measure/meter out the powder for each individual charge. It is possible to use a scale and manually measure out each charge, but that is highly time consuming, and prone to human errors. Meters vary in function, and precision, but nearly all follow the basic idea of filling a void with powder, then dumping that powder via a funnel into the case hence the term "metering" as the powder is not actually weighed. Now, all typical meters are very precise in general terms, but for extreme accuracy, even more is required. Most meters with many powders will hold +/- 0.1 grains precision, which is good for the beginner, or for pistol or plinking rounds. Some meters are free standing, where the case is positioned below the meter, and filled, others can be or are installed on a press automatically functioned from the action of the press. Some can be used either way. Once again, the manufacturers of presses and dies also make powder dispensers, and can be purchased from the same places. [/QUOTE]
