Precision Adjustment for Powder Measure
Quote from Reloader on August 21, 2012, 7:47 pmProbably discussed many times, but are the Uniquetek or MrDial powder measure adjustments worth the expense? Comments welcome.

With most ball powders, I find the Mr. Dial most useful as 1 increment on the dial USUALLY equals a change of .1 grain of Ball or flake powder (I still check all final settings with a scale, as should you).
Both work well, with the Uniquetek being a little harder to use due to the smaller markings on the scale.

I bought a couple of much cheaper plastic variations on eBay that work almost as well. You don't have the nice gradations that MrDial has, but you can easily make the adjustments in small increments. Once set, everything is good.
