SHOT SHOW 2013: New Lyman Automatic Powder Dispensers

[kombayotch]

Lyman will be introducing a new line of scales and automatic powder dispensers this year. These new dispensers are supposed to address the shortcomings of their old dispenser (30 min. warm-up time) while being less expensive (i.e. priced competitively with the new Hornady dispenser).

The little one has no memory storage. MSRP is $290. The MSRP on the large one is $350.

Those look nice!

I'm just getting into reloading. What's the difference between the two?

 

[kombayotch]

I didn't have the opportunity to ask that due to a large number of other people in the booth all asking questions about different things. I hope to revisit this at some point before the end of the show.

that look sweat, would be interested to see how accurate she is.

 

[Doctor.thrax]

i wonder the same thing

 

[jwillmoore]

Electronic scale should be quite accurate.

I like the idea and finish. I would like to have an idea about pricing in Canada

 

[Mark-II]

As long as the little one has a repeat / auto-repeat function, I'm interested.

I'm sick of hand-weighing and outright avoiding stick powders

 

[canoetrpr]

What were the shortcomings of the old dispensers?

takes too long to settle before you can start using it

 

[StylinMike]

These scales would work good for rifle loading, but it would be sweet if someone made one for a turret set up that auto measures into each pistol case. Probably would be too slow though to keep up with the turret..

This. 30 minute warmup time is a real PITA.

This. 30 minute warmup time is a real PITA.

Wow! I'm guessing the RCBS Chargemaster does not have this issue then?

 

[legi0n]

Wow! I'm guessing the RCBS Chargemaster does not have this issue then?

you're right

 

[Kevin M.]

I had one and the 30 min warmup was a major pita.
