I recently decided to purchase a complete set of powder bushings for my push button powder measure:
I figured it would be a good choice for whipping up blasting ammo and I would not have to futz with setting/resetting one of my adjustable ones. Unfortunately, their powder bushing chart has limited choices and does not appear to have been updated in a while:
It dawned on me that it is little more than a fancy version of the Lee dippers and all I needed to was figure out the volume of the cavity for each bushing and then I could use currently-available VMD data to get me in the ballpark for charge weight. I grabbed my pin gauges and inside/outside micrometers and got to measuring. Below are the results for anyone who uses this powder measure and is interested.
