See Powder in Rifle Cases

What do you guys use to see powder in rifle or any long case? Any pics of setup?
Thanks

I use a KMS Squared UFO light for my 550b. Works quite well in my never to be humble opinion. Available on Amazon &32.99. Just Google "Dillon reloader accessory lights" to see other available options.

Thanks I have one of those work great. I still can’t see level on long cases very well if case isn’t nearly full. Seen mirror options but don’t see how that is much good or haven’t seen right setup

I've seen guys on youtube use a mirror that's on a flexible wand that you can mount with the attached clamp. Hope this helps.

Thanks need figure out how they do it.

Figured out how to check 357 Mag and rifle cases with mirror and use Hornady powder cop already had on hand. Thanks for replies

Using a rotary wet tumbler with stainless steel pins gets the insides of cases (and primer pockets) as bright and shiny as the outside, and with straight wall cases lets you see the reflection of powder on the inside case wall.  It's not a pass/fail tool like a powder check die would be, but you quickly get a feel for what looks "right" in the reflection without having to lean over the top of the case.  One of the Inline Fabrication toolhead lights improves things even more.
