Powder Dispenser

[gunbuster]

I'm ready to buy a powder dispenser.  One of those that dispense onto the scale.  Just don't know which one to purchase.  RCBS or Lyman.  I have had a Pact and after sending it back several times for repair and now it needs to go again, I am done with it.  The RCBS and Lyman seems to do the same thing.  Anybody have any thoughts as to which may work the best?

Sorry to hear that about the Pact, it's the only one made in the US currently, the Lyman and RCBS are both made in China. I have the Lyman and have no complaints after upgrading it to the DPS3 version, was a bit slow before and not the easiest to dump the powder, but the upgrade solved both issues. Perhaps your Pact is the older model that is the same as the RCBS, their newer model is a different machine as stated on their website, Pact has a lifetime warranty compared to the 1yr on both of the other units, if I were in the market now, I'd seriously consider the Pact myself, it's also the least expensive at $230, that's only $10 more than I paid for my Lyman several years ago including the upgrade kit.

I have used the newer RCBS for several years now and have been extremely satisfied with it. Don't know how i reloaded before it.

Hornady has just announced one. I'm really anxious to give it a try. I'll prolly be trying to talk Steve in sending me one of them and that new trimmer case prep center both this year.
