Here is how I make fine adjustments on my Lee Auto Powder Measure.

MD does your lee powder measure spill powder around the plate you have pictured. I have one on a their 4 hole progressive press, but it makes a mess with powder.

No,I don't have much of a problem. I use mainly blue dot and unique which are pretty course. Using ball type powders probably would be more messy. Do you have the Lee Pro model or the regular auto- disk?

I've got a pro and it leaks a lot of powder. It is a wear thing, it kept getting worse until I quit using it

Mine was brand new!! FYI, other than  that, I really like it. It takes a while to find out which plate to use with charge wt. , but it is accurate, just messy. I guess it gives me a reason to clean up right away!
