Ordinary Clays through a powder measure

On my Hornady L'n'L, for Clays, I went back to the large rotor from the pistol rotor. I also drop a pair of fender washers on top of the powder stack. Variance is much diminshed ... still not a ball powder but functional.

Lee Pro Auto-Disk Powder

I use a Lee Pro Auto-Disk, get very consistent 4.0 grain drops.

I am getting great drops with the lee auto disk of 5.0gr of universal which says universal clays technology on the bottle so I don`t know if its what your are referring to. Best, the auto disk does not leak the powder like it did with AA#5

I have no doubt a Lee Pro Auto-Disk Powder Measure will reliably meter 3.0gr of Clays or higher. I'm having trouble getting it to meter reliably with a 2.5gr charge used in my 148gr LWC .38 Special rounds.

I had 2 squibs while shooting Clays loads below 3 grains, I pulled the bullets on the rest and it seemed that 1 in 10 was light (or very light). I now have a policy, willing to err on the side of caution, of not going below 4 grains of Clays with the Auto Disk, and I'll probably just burn up the Clays I have in .357's, .45's, and .44's and not replace it when it's gone. Because of the consistency, Titegroup is now my preferred powder for Rainier 148 DEWC's - I use 3.5 grains in .38 SP which is a tad hotter than the Hodgdon load of 3.3 Titegroup, but I'm shooting .357 revolvers. Works great on bowling pins a foot from the back of the table - if I do my job.

Looking for the same thing.

I've been waiting seven weeks for a backordered Redding 3BRK from Graffs:

I'm currently using a RCBS Uniflow with the large chamber and get about +/- .05 gr. with Clays. I've order the small chamber but have not received it yet.

My .57cc disk throws 3.9gr Clays, very consistantly

Actually I did go against my rule of thumb last night (not going below 4 grains of Clays with Auto Disk) and used the .57cc disk on some .45's. I weighed 3.8 grains several times. The conversion chart says .57cc disk drops 3.9 grains. I'm happy with that!

i run 4.3 of clays with a 200 gr SWC. for 45 acp and it averages 835 fps. -chris

I shoot Clays almost exclusively through my 38 Spec. With full wadcutters, the load is around 2.5 grs. With 158-170 gr. SWC's more like 3.5 gr. I use an older Lyman powder measure with complete success.

3.6 grains of Clays gently pushes plated 200 grain SWC's for my Smith 625. My Dillon powder measure is very consistant with this load. I've weighed 20 in a row. 3.6 +/- the width of the line on my scale. I estimate that to be +/-.05 grains.
