need small powder funnel for pouring into barrel.

[redear]

when I take my brake off to shoot sabots I could use a small funnel to pour powder into the barrel. pouring from a charge tube into a 45. cal muzzle is just asking to spill some powder. does anyone have a source for a funnel like this? My muzzle brake funnel won't fit in the muzzle.

I bought some el cheapo plastic funnels at Dollar General. They work great.

I made some from range brass, a bottleneck rifle cartridge using a flaring tool to expand the brass after taking a pipe cutter to remove primer seat.

Midway USA has a CVA powder funnel that you can use on your barrel or it snaps on top of a pyrodex can I have one and it works great.

I no longer use these, which were not load through. Easy for propellant..... Red one is from a new gas funnel from walmart for less than a buck.

You get about 4 different sized funnels from Harbor Freight for $0.99. The little one is great for this.

and no static cling like the plastic ones. I chucked the one I briefly had. I really dont have any probs pourin powder from the plastic tubes into either of my MLs though.

What ever you use as a propellant loading funnel, if its not plastic, keep it off the crown .010"

got my pic to work on my iPad, the swollen area where the fuel line attaches won’t fit into a 45 cal barrel so it keeps the metal flask off the crown
