    Frankford Arsenal Intellidropper Electronic Powder Scale and Dispenser

    Looks like RCBS Chargemaster lite for me.

    I had a Scheel's Powder Dispenser that I've used for several years with good results. I went to use it a couple weeks ago and it was drifting like crazy...swings of nearly 2 grains. I returned it (lifetime warranty through Scheel's). Unfortunately, they don't make/carry them anymore. However, they did offer to swap it out for something they did have in stock. I was really on the fence between the RCBC Chargemaster Lite and the FA Intellidropper. Initial reviews on the FA were good, but ultimately I went with the Chargemaster Lite, and I'm very happy that I did. Fast, accurate, and easy to use. Not as "full-featured" as the Chargemaster (or my Scheel's model, for that matter), in that I can't program the speed curves for a specific powder type, but even with a stick powder like H4350, the Lite does a great job...even without the "straw mod" that greatly improved the original Chargemaster. The Lite has a fluted tube that does a very good job of not over-throwing powder at the final slow trickle stage. Very happy with the RCBS!

    Good to know. Thanks for your feedback. I'm going to get the RCBS chargemaster lite.
