Null N. Void Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 For info. YMMV. I've always had some drift in my powder drops on a Dillon SDB. It's seems to settle out after a day or two if I leave the powder in the hopper. I wanted to see how much the the density was shifting. I filled the hopper to the red mark and then tapped and rattled the hopper to get the powder to settle. The powder is Promo. The difference is about 10%. Once I settle the powder, it stays constant during the sessions even if I add powder to the hopper as I go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 There's powder baffles made to fit the Dillon hoppers that help with keeping the weight of the powder off of the powder being dispensed. I find them very helpful. And, different powders settle different amounts. Dense ball powders not much. Large flake much more settling. Good luck, GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
