i used a black friday purchase my chargemaster 1500 for the first time today. i had loaded some 45 acp with vvn320 on my dillon and left the jug on the bench. i then loaded 44 mag with 296 and used the chargemaster.( i never could meter it consistently on tthe dillon) .
this was first time emptying the chargemaster so i could load some 308 later tonight. trying to not spill from the spout i had drained the residual 296 into my 1 lb jug of vvn320 instead.
2 good things: the left over 296 from the machine was not too much. i put the wrong powder into a 1 lb jig and not into a bigger jug like the 4 lb jig of 296.
the bad it was vvn320 with only 300 5 gr rounds used. it was also my most expensive powder.
i dumped the powder in the grass already.
at least its easy to replace at this time.
