Area419 Chargemaster Powder Cup

[LA260]

Has anyone purchased or used the Area419 CM powder cup? Is it a worthwhile upgrade? Thnx

i don't have much experience with other powder cups, except the one that came with my ChargeMaster Lite...and it is a LOT better. Or you can also go the cheaper route and get this:

i purchased a set, but haven't tried it yet.


Edit: I apologize, i'm using the normal powder cup from A419 and not the CM version. That said, i purchased the stainless measuring cup to use with my CMLite

I have one and don't believe it is. I've been meaning to contact Area 419 about it, but mine appeared to constantly drift so I just went back to the setup it came with. Also, the 419 cup is a lot taller and would occasionally bump the tube and drop more powder in which was a pita to deal with.

I also tried to just use the new tray and the RCBS cup to see if it'll work and not have to worry about static on the plastic RCBS one but no bueno.

I use the Area 419 powder cup and do like it . It helps prevent spills being taller however i also use their Funnel system to pour the weighted powder into the brass. As per their recommendation i placed a small washer under their base to correct the drift of the scale. All the RCBS chargemasters do not need the use of the washer however mine did.

Mine drifts like crazy too. So it needs a washer?

I know this is old but can someone explain the washer under the base? My Area 419 powder cup and plate on my chargemaster makes it drift and go crazy. I thought it was static but can’t seem to get rid of it. When I switch back to the normal plate and cup it goes away.

Thanks
