You haven't tried any of the stick powders that give you trouble? This is what I was wanting to know about too...We'll have ours up and going here today or tomorrow..I got a lot of reloading to do this week...

Not yet, gonna load some H4198 for the .444 soon, but I put that on hold for your 30-30 loads, or I would've done it already!! ;D I ran out of time yesterday, or I would've got to it.

I loaded up 42 rounds of .444s today, fill time for 45gr of H4198 is exactly the amount of time it takes to seat the last charged case, for 48gr, I had to wait 8-10 seconds for it to finish. Clean up with this powder was a breeze, all of it drained out of the powder box when I opened the chute. A little was left in the delivery tube, but a tip to each side, and it was empty, took less than a minute to clean it out and set it back up for next time. I real happy with the upgrade, it makes it as fast and convenient as the new DPS3 model from what Lyman says.

WOW...9 seconds flat for 56 grains of IMR4350...it took 33 seconds before the conversion....AWESOME.......This is what I call an upgrade...

Thank for the heads-up on this one Quick...
