Hey guys what powder measure are you using

I have a Lee PPM and auto disk with dbl disk and adjustable charge bar. I followed some instructions to lap the PPM for better contact which solved the issue of ball powder jamming it up. It drops most ball powder to within .1 gr of target weight. Stick powder can vary a few tenths +/- so I set it low and trickle up on the 5-0-5. The Auto Disk is about the same consistency but leaks ball powders a bit. I like it for charging .223 practice rounds with the charge bar and ball powder. I just can't bring myself to buy a more expensive measure since what I really want is something that can drop stick powder to within .1 gr, not cost an arm and a leg and not be a pain to use. All flowcharts point to Chargemaster instead but its just not high enough on the priority list to dip that deep into the gun fund right now. Any recommendations to look at are welcomed, measure, dispender or otherwise.
 
I had a Lyman 55 for quite a while, used it for ball powders mostly, usually ww760, sticks were a pain in the butt to run thru it unless they were short ones. PIcked up a Redding BR30 and used it for my Schuetzen rifles, it ran sr4759 or AA9 thru it all the time. If i use stick powders, I usually used Lee spoons for the most part. Found the small spoon to be an excellent trickler, way simpler than using a "proper" trickler. I have a Chargemaster now, but, still use the spoons a lot if I'm not in the mood to wait for the Chargemaster to fire up. I was looking seriously at a Harrel's before buying the Chargemaster, but, with the price of them, the Chargemaster made more sense.
