drop tube use

[Old Jim]

I have a 24" drop-tube on the loading bench. Secured on top of the tube is a 17 caliber funnel. Powder is taken from the powder-measure and dumped in the funnel, and it slowly meters its self down the tube into a case. The same time , every time, down the same tube. With an accurate measurement of the powder, I find it is stacked in the clean case within 0.030" every time. My bullets weigh within 1.0 gr. each and when carefully assembled, my groups are the best I've ever shot, at ranges out to 600 yards and beyond.

That being said, I ain't changin' nothin' !
To each his own!

Jim
