Hi guys, i am just starting to reload and I bought Winchester Autocomp powder and the problem is that on a lee measure kit table I don't see this powder. I dont have the scale and i was planing to use Lee measure kit with dippers. Do you guys have any experience with Winchester Autocomp powder.
I will be reloading 357 magnum, 135gr( copper plated bullets) and I would like to have light loads.

Save yourself some agony, time and know what your actual powder charge is.
Buy a scale.
You don't even really know how heavy your bullets are. Were they labeled correctly?
Stop taking information for granted.

I think that earplug hit the nail on the head. A good beam scale is not that expensive.
