The MEC Powder Measure Drop Assembly is the metering workhorse behind the MEC Marksman metallic reloading setup. It throws charges anywhere from 1 grain all the way up to 60 grains, covering everything from light pistol loads to heavy magnum rifle rounds. Operation is about as straightforward as it gets: lift the handle to rotate the internal drum, let it drop, and your measured charge falls right out the tube. The handle can be run from either side, so left or right handed reloaders get the same smooth feel at the bench.
The thing most folks notice first is the capacity. The screw-in hopper holds up to two pounds of powder, which is roughly double what a lot of bench measures manage, and that means far fewer stops to top off during a long loading session. The whole unit is cast from durable iron and made in Mayville, Wisconsin, so it carries the same build quality MEC has been known for across generations of reloaders. The drop tube is sized nicely for 30 caliber case mouths and smaller powder pans.
The rotating drum uses a removable metering insert and an adjustable drum setting to fine tune your charge. Like any volumetric measure, a consistent handle stroke is what keeps your throws uniform, so a steady up and down rhythm pays off. Ball and flake powders meter beautifully through a drum like this, while long stick powders can be a touch more finicky, so it never hurts to verify your setting on a scale before you run a batch.
This assembly ships with a heavy steel stand that lets you anchor it right to your reloading bench. Pull the measure off the stand and it threads onto a progressive press using standard 7/8-14 threads, giving you flexibility in how you want to run it. Whether you are loading precision rifle rounds on the Marksman or feeding a progressive, this measure keeps the powder flowing.
It meters powder from 1 grain up to 60 grains, which covers light pistol charges through heavy magnum rifle loads. You set your throw using the adjustable drum and removable metering insert. As with any volumetric measure, it is smart to confirm your setting on a scale before running a full batch.
Yes, it ships with a heavy steel stand that lets you secure it directly to your reloading bench. If you prefer to run it on a progressive press instead, the measure removes from the stand and threads on using standard 7/8-14 threads.
It is. The handle can be mounted on either side and operated from the front or back, so lefties and righties both get a comfortable, consistent stroke. A steady handle motion is the key to uniform charges.
Yes, this is the powder measure designed to round out the MEC Marksman metallic reloading setup. It mounts to the included bench stand for use alongside the press, or threads onto a progressive press with 7/8-14 threads if you want to run it there instead.
