Thanks, I will have to look into that!
I have an Ohaus DUO-MEASURE mounted on my bench that I have been using since the '70s that sports a sad taped OEM hopper.
I have even created a couple of ersatz emergency replacement hoppers from a specific kind of plastic bottle ... but they are on the edge of the unsat range.

Nice! Do you know how they fasten to the press-on Uniflow rim? Pretty sure you don't beat them on like you do a new plastic one....
The base and top cap are made from milled aluminum, on my Duo measure it attaches to the top of the measure with two set screws. The fit and finish is as if the part is an original OEM part.

Ward has the hoppers for the Ohaus Duo as well.

Yes, for the Lee AutoDrum, also, which is currently what handles the lion share of my powder-measuring activity.

Some years ago , somewhere I saw a powder hopper that accepted the thread of the IMR powder bottles. Has anyone seen that?

I also purchased several for my Hornady LNL and Redding. Very good quality. The fit and finish exceeded my expectations. The Hornady threaded into my powder measure and fits tightly. The Redding had replacement Hopper screws and fits perfectly.
