    Default Automatic Powder Dispenser

    What do you guys recommend? I was hoping to get something for the loads on my single stage, or short runs. Something like Hornady Auto Charge, or RCBS Chargemaster, but I am not sure if they are work, or are worth it. I know precision guys like the Prometheus, but I don't want to spend that much. Thanks for your input.

    Chargemaster with the extra insert that are sold aftermarket is about the best you can get. I have had the Lyman Gen6 and the RCBS, I prefer the RCBS.

    You could also look into the Autotrickler + AD FX 120i

    I got the Hornady for a present once. It works, doesn't over charge. But if your doing a light load, like a 223 or 9mm it takes forever. I would spend the extra to get more bells and whistles

    Chargemaster is closer to what I want to spend. Thanks.

    Natchez has been running specials on Chargemasters lately. Not sure the link, but was a pretty good deal. Also RCBS always seem to have a rebate going. If you get one, get the MDM brass insert, the Mickey D's straw trick only helps a little. They are not perfect, but good for the money.

    I got the Hornady on sale a few years back; I have no complaints.

    I'm happy with the Chargemaster.
