Description
Hornady Bench Rest Powder Measure 050130
You'll receive all the advantages of Lock-N-Load technology with the added benefit of more precise measuring. That precision comes from a specially designed chrome-plated metering insert and a smaller metering chamber to promote more consistent and uniform filling.
There’s no need to drain your powder hopper or disassemble the Powder Measure. Simply use the Drain Tube Insert (sold separately) to rapidly and easily return powder to its container.
Features:
➼ The micrometer adjustment gives a positive reference for metering adjustments.
➼ Install pre-set metering units by simply pushing the button on the outside of the metering chamber.
➼ Measurements adjust from 20 to 65 grains.
➼ All moving parts have been plated for protection and long life.
➼ The rotor requires NO lubrication.
FAQs
1. Is this suitable for beginners?
Yes, but it’s best appreciated by users who understand load development. Beginners can use it, though simpler powder measures may be easier to start with.
2. How accurate is it?
It delivers very consistent volumetric charges, especially with ball or fine powders. Like all volumetric measures, exact weight precision may still require a scale check.
3. Does it work with all powder types?
- Best: Ball and fine-grain powders
- Moderate: Short-cut extruded powders
- Less ideal: Long stick powders (may vary slightly)
4. Do I need lubrication?
No. The rotor is designed to operate without lubrication, reducing contamination risk.
5. Can I empty powder easily?
Yes—using the optional drain tube insert, you can empty the hopper without disassembly.
