Prepping powder! Frankford Arsenal Bench Top Powder Measure.

Wanted to get a few powder charges ready for the 77 grain SMKs that I am going to use to make the 745ish yard shot from my 16" AR soon. Figured I'd show off the 2 powders I'm going to test. TAC and the new Staball Match. Got 4 charges of each ready to try and see if there is any noticeable difference between them.
Figured it'd be a good time to show off the Frankford Arsenal powder drop. Got it for myself for my birthday and I'm impressed with it. Bearing on the drum housing let it rotate very, very smoothly. Micro adjuster on the adjustment knob makes changes easy to estimate. If you have any questions or want to see something specific, let me know and I'll make it happen!
Also wanted to show off the benefits of a good scale. I started with the Frankford Arsenal mini scale. Works ok, but you can NOT trickle with it. It's not sensitive enough to do that properly. I show a few examples of how it will jump over. Frustrating to try and trickle with it. I got a more high end scale that can measure to the 2nd decimal. Always better to have more accurate data!!

Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions.

This is a private range. All shooting is done in a safe, controlled environment with no people or dwellings within miles to be at risk.
