I use my old RCBS 505. It it zeroed and checked with a Lyman set of check weight just prior to the testing.

Here are the results for HS-6 and Trail Boss powders using the Lee Classic Powder Measure.
With HS-6 the results were the same as Bullseye with a .01g difference in only 2 out of the 10 drops. I did no further testing HS-6.
Trail Boss Data:
Measure adjusted for 14.6g with approximately 2 second fill time. Individual weights as listed for each dispensing.
1- 14.6g
2- 14.4g
3- 14.6g
4- 14.6g
5- 14.5g
6- 14.4g
7- 14.6g
8- 14.8g
9- 14.6g
10- 14.5g
Then 5 drops of the Trail Boss 14.6g were performed with approximately 2 second fill times and measure in bulk for a total of 73.3g or a 14.66gg average.
Measure adjusted for 4.5g with approximately 2 second fill time. Individual weights as listed for each dispensing.
1- 4.5g
2- 4.4g
3- 4.3g
4- 4.4g
5- 4.4g
6- 4.4g
7- 4.4g
8- 4.2g
9- 4.3g
10- 4.4g

I think this a big improvement to Lee's powder management line-up. I tried using the other Lee powder management tools before this one, and I wasn't too happy with them. I now have one of these on my bench, and it shares powder management duties with my Uniflow....a very good product.

Thanks daboone for taking the time to post this info. I was hoping I would have time today to play with mine, but the wife had other plans for me. She knows I'm up to some thing and,, well you know. I'll let you know how it goes when I finally get a chance to set it up. Thanks Man.
