I'm trying to load 30-06 cases w/ 4895 using a Lee Auto-Drum on a LCT press. I'm setting up for 44.8 grns. I'm weighing 10 charges and getting an average before adjusting. I've got it down to a 10 charge of avg of 44.8 +/- 0.1 grn, however, I'm seeing wild swings that cancel each other out to get that tolerance. (0.3 grns high followed by 0.3 grns low) I can't expect any accuracy with that, even though I'm really just loading "plinking" ammo.
Is this normal for this powder with this measure? Do I need to just load it all by hand on my RCBS chargemaster? I was hoping to just load up a bunch of ammo and be done, but I've never had that luck in the reloading room.
