- This video is a detailed review of the Lee Precision Perfect Powder Measure. I discuss the unique features of this powder measure, issues I have experienced, and helpful solutions I have used.
Excellent presentation. Thanks.
I received this with Lee Single Stage Breech lock kit and have used it with four different Accurate powders at extremes of 2.4 grains of #2 up to 44 grains of #5744.
I made an adapter out of aluminum plate to mount to the press so I charge after belling the cases.
Turning the tension screw in / out depending on powder only got me so far with results.
I have the unit apart right now, polishing the contact surfaces with 400 grit paper.
Although Lee did a good job for this price point, you inspired me to get even better performance from a trusted reloading component.
Thanks again.

Following the OP’s process the unit is better than new!
400 grit wet or dry. Wipe.
Graphite powder. Tap off excess. Assemble.
I ran 50 - 60 grains to be sure it was clear of plastic or graphite. Loaded around 200 rounds 12.5 and 12.9 grains ACC #5. Awesome.
Thanks again!
I hit mine with some dryer sheets, helped a ton. Mine lost static over time. I don’t have this exact model but I have the pre version. Great video buddy.
Great idea. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video it was some great help, PS I'm not the only one that knew about the bottle cap either 👍
I'm glad that you found it helpful. Just helping one person makes it worth the time!
I have 3 of them. They work great for all types of rifle powder
It works but in order to prevent less amount of leaks through the side, you have to tighten the screw on the side a lot. It makes dispensing the powder more of a pain. I'm thinking of the getting the auto drum.
Just got my press kit the other day.
New to reloading and looking forward to getting started.
Thanks.
Fantastic. I am a newer reloader myself, so welcome!
After lots of use, you may find that the conical drums get clogged up with powder and it's very hard to move the handle. The problem is the little rubber wiper in the cone body wears and must be replaced, or shimmed behind it to make it sit up higher and actually wipe the outer cone as the handle is moved.
This powder drop is cheap and gets the job done. I had good luck with mine right out of the box but wanted to tune it a little. Took it apart removed all the guts including the scraper and worked a piece of 1000 grit sandpaper between both pieces to make a perfect seat.
Great demonstration on this powder measure. I am considering the purchase. However, I am also concerned with that particular leakage others have mentioned. I purchased Winchester 231 ball powder for my 9mm rounds. However, this powder is flat ball, and I wonder if it may also get caught in those edges. What's your take on that?
sorry to be a bit slow on the uptake but how do you screw the full bottle on upside down without spilling it? Does the red section come away from the unit somehow or do you have to hold the whole unit upside down to get it on? [bit hard if its screwed to your bench ] . I notice that some of the older models have a lid , thanks..
The red cap is removable from the stand (slides up and off). It also twists so that the powder chute is closed. This enables the user to screw the cap onto the powder bottle (Winchester, etc.), flip the bottle upside down, and slide the bottle onto the stand without spilling powder. Simply twisting the cap will open the chute and enable powder to flow freely. I hope that helps!
Pop the knob off the handle get a piece of aluminum flat bar extend the handle tighten the tension screw down you will be good to go
Thanks for the tips.
Oh great, just started reloading and I bought accurate #5 and that powder measure, hope it’s not a miserable mistake
Accurate #5 is a fantastic powder.
Great video! Thanks
good video ,lots of good information
what do you think, if you compare this , with the deluxe version, and the lyman brass smith version ? (ignore the price tag)
Never ignore the price tag. The price is the point.. getting the job done at the most reasonable price is key to the process
Any issue using stick powders like IMR 4350?
I personally have not tried stick powders so I am unable to comment on that, sorry!
I reloaded with 4064 with older version ,I found that it would sometime overcharge by at least a grain .I have a beam scale so don't know by how much but pan would drop fast so I would undercharge & trickle the rest ,it still speed up the process
