[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3387217, member: 3099"] I'm gonna agree with MP on the powder check. They just aren't necessary. I've found that you can run the Dillon measure (and most others) even with a flake powder like Clays down to the very last full throw and still get accurate throws all the way to that last full one. And by then the powder measure looks empty and has for several rounds. Nobody lets them get that low and you can easily see the powder in the hopper so why bother? They are just something to spend more money on and fiddle with and give you basically nothing in return for the station they take up. I prefer to stick a Lyman M die in there to facilitate bullet seating. If you are loading a LOT of rounds with an auto drive maybe it'd be different. I did use a Hornady powder cop die for awhile, but I don't even bother with that anymore. [/QUOTE]
