"I have enjoyed the new powder charger. I loaded some 17ccm ammo which is my smallest, and it worked fine. I really like this powder measure.

"The small charge funnel works great…very ingenious design. Love it! The Setting Gage unit and the simplicity of the "Setting Gage Division Calculations" are great…now why didn't I think of this!!! Great job, and thank you.

I purchased a JDS Quick Measure at The Big Reno Show in 2003 and highly recommend it for anyone involved in precision hand loading. Not only is it the most accurate measure I have used but it is the fastest and most convenient. I own two bench rest measures made by others and haven't touched them since I bought the

I have a progressive Hornady Lock and Load press that I have used since they were first produced. Recently I worked up some excellent loads for my 6mm Ackley Improved using a very large grain extruded powder. I quickly learned that my powder measure was virtually useless as there was a terrible problem cutting powder. The same problem occurred when I tried other measures that I have also used over the years. The problem was that they all used the same principle of measurement.

I had read about the Quick Measure in several publications but had not tried one as most results showed little advantage of the Quick Measure when measuring ball or short grain powders that were used in the testing. I noted your add that said the Quick Measure did not use a measuring system that cut the powder. I tried the Quick Measure and quickly learned that the huge advantage it has over all other measures is that it does not in fact cut powder and will measure large grain extruded powders as easily and accurately as ball powders. I bought one along with your simple and easy to use attachment for rotary presses and it could not work better on my Hornady progressive. The easy to use system you have developed to keep track of powder tube settings for each powder and weight makes changing powders and weights the fastest and simplest I have ever encountered.

I also do a good deal of loading for handguns and found that when using light weight pistol loads, the Quick Measure throws charges that result in less than one tenth of a grain difference between charges.

In short, I could not be more pleased with my Quick Measure and would recommend it to any serious hand loader. It has replaced all of my other powder measure.

Your measure is by far the best. It has cut down on the time it takes me to charge cases by a good 50%. Quick and accurate, best describe the measure. I am also very impressed with your customer support, and I will strongly recommend your measure to all of my shooting friends.
