Re: Anyone use Lee auto disk poeder measure?

I, too, use the Pro Auto Disc measure and find it VERY consistent. It is not exactly in tune with the Lee Modern Reloading charts. That is fine. I have found which disc cavity throws the proper weight of the few powders I use (WIN WST or 231 and maybe later Autocomp).

One suggestion I will make which has helped me is to make index cards for each bullet weight you are reloading. On put a description of the caliber, bullet weight and style, OAL, and then list the various (if more than one) powders and different powder charges that you use. I also list the disc cavity size which actually throws the weight I want. This really saves a lot of time is setting up for each session without having to re-invent the wheel each time.

Another thing which I have found useful and time saving is to use a paint pen to mark the edges of each of the discs with the size of the corresponding cavity. This way, each time you throw a charge and the disc slides forward, the size of the cavity you are using slides forward to be exposed as you dump the powder. This is a comforting confirmation each time and it also makes it easier to change the discs correctly.

I hope you find this useful.
