Good morning THR friends,
Looking to pick up a Redding powder measure to replace my existing Lee perfect powder measure unit. I’ve used the Lee for a while now, and while it’s fine for dropping a rough charge and then trickling up to the exact charge, I don’t trust it enough to throw charges directly. (See attached data below. Charges were thrown of IMR 4227 (very fine stick powder that meters very well), IMR 4350 (very coarse stick powder) and CFE Pistol (flake pistol powder that leaked badly during the test).
That being said, I have one gentleman offering me a Redding Model 3 in good condition for $100, and another guy offering me a 3BR for $150 also in good condition. Is the 3BR substantially improved over the model 3, or is it just hype? If anyone can chime in to their experience using either one of these, that would be fantastic. Thanks all!
