Using Vibration to Settle Black Powder

RE: Using Vibration to Settle Black Powder
My drop-tube set-up is like Kurt's. A 24" long section of 3/8" copper tube, with a 17 caliber powder funnel fastened to the top. I drop the powder into a weighing-pan, then dump it all into the funnel, letting mother-nature dribble it into the positioned case below. No vibration. I have checked the powder depth in the case and the powder level is within 20/1000 of depth in each case.
Good 'nough!
That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!
