You can get anything Lee through Highinson Powders in Hawksbury Ontario. You may still do better by ordering through Titan reloading supply in the US though.
 
I was going to say you can have mine, but i missed the cast part of that. I just got the plastic one. It works well but I upgraded after 5 years
 
i started with the cheapie Lee plastic measure,,then upgraded to 2 different Redding cast iron measures,,and a Lyman cast measure,,also an RCBS cast measure,but back to using the cheap Lee plastic one,just seems to work better,nothing wrong with Lee stuff,,unless a prestigious manufacturer's name on your measure makes it better for you,,

ford,dodge,gm fever.
I bought my cheap plastic PPM from LEE as a factory second when I was 19, I turned 50 2 week's ago
 
I have this powder measure and it works great with spherical powder (+/- 0.1gr normally) Titegroup, H-110, H-335, and so-so (+0.1 to -0.4gr) with extruded such as H-4831SC, H-4895, and Varget. I use a powder trickler to top-up underweight charges. I don't use flake powder so I have no comment about what it would do with it. I also have the quick change drum set and it is so useful that since I reload for a variety of rifles and handguns with differing powder types and charges I just bought a second quick change set.

Exactly 1/2 the price from Titan compared to Higginson.

Don't know how well that works. It is $US71.49 at Titan and the cheapest USPS/Canada Post shipping I can find there is $US24.50. With the Canadian Peso at about 75% of a USD, that makes it about 128 Canadian Pesos. Now if you are ordering a pile of stuff it will get cheaper but with only a few items it is going to be comparable or possibly even cheaper purchasing from Higginsons and will support a Canadian business you might need down the road.
 
Ya, I didn't factor in exchange, etc.
$114 plus tax and shipping would be close to $150. That's about the same as an RCBS or Hornady measure.
I would like to see one first. Where did you get yours?

I think I bought at Higginsons, but back when they first came out so the dollar was close to a dollar. I think it was $CAN79 give or take a bit at the time.
