fav powder measure for turret press?

I've added an RCBS turret press to my reloading area. What press is your fav for adding to a turret press? I've currently got RCBS Charge Master 1500 and an RCBS Uniflow...also Dillon units for the progressive side.

What are your fav powder measures in general?

fav powder measure for turret press?

My favorite would be the Lyman measure that came with the turret press kit my wife gave me late in the last century. It worked well with ball and flake powder, not so well with stick as one would get some shearing of the powder when cycling it. Still, it did good duty and I loaded thousands of rounds with it over the years.

Funny, a cheap Lee measure does pretty good if you've got it well fastened to the table. I've run several hundred rounds that way over the past couple of visits up north. It's not my favorite, but gets the job done.

Redding Benchrest powder measure

I only use my Redding T-7 for loading rifle cartridges, so I'm very happy with my Redding Benchrest powder measure. May not be the best choice if you are going to measure small charges of pistol powder though....

Redding makes good equipment. NT

Keep them coming but for now I'm going to add the micrometer adjustment to the Uniflow. I should have done that long ago.
