Ron S said:Buy a inexpensive,set of balance beam scales! Lee makes a set that are very inexpensive,and accurate! The dippers are OK,but I'd rather hand weigh each charge. That way you have eliminated one of the variables in your loading system. Also powder varies somewhat from lot# to lot#. Smokless powder isn't as forgiving as BP or It's subs. One or two grains can make a BIG diffrence,in accuracy,performance,and saftey! Ron

About $90 for the best trigger you can get on a Savage.

This may sound confusing, but both are "correct" ways.
Lee Dipper sets are designed for smokeless, they are volumetric measures. All of my MEC progressive shotshell presses are of course for smokeless, and they drop by volume determined by the MEC bushing you use. Any drum type powder measure drops by volume.
Smokeless, blackpowder, and Triple 7 all give the best accuracy using weighed charges.
5744 can give excellent accuracy using Lee 3.1 or 3.4 cc dippers, but no other powder I've tried does as well with them.
