So I decide to load up a few rounds today from my batch of previously cleaned and primed cases.
I start out setting up my powder dispenser and get the measure to the desired setting of 27.9 ramshot tac. Igo through and test a few measures then I start to charge all the rounds in my tray (50). After those were done a put a bullet in a few then it occurred to me that I didn't check my charge load after I was done and it is a good thing I did as it was then dispensing between 30 and 31 grains of powder. So I first verified that the scale was calibrated and reading the measures correctly. Then after testing some more I found that the dispenser was really erratic and not very consistent loading my charge. It would vary between 26 and up to 30 after correcting the charge again. In the end I had to measure every load by hand manually as I have lost confidence in that part of the equipment..
Anyone else have issues like this with their dispensers? And if so what did you do to resolve it?
Sorry for any typo's as I'm posting from my phone.
