If you were happy with the Lee perfect powder measure I would get another one - I use one regularly and find them to be as accurate as any measure. The Smart reloader one is a direct ripoff of the Lee measure - Their website says manufactured by smartreloader but I think they are the same as this one made in China. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/powder-me...Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item3cc8197169

I bought one about a year ago when the guy first advertised them, I paid £11 including shipping. They work ok but they don't have a handle, I made a handle for mine and it works well.





 
Cheers ....

Thats the one I saw.... On a close up, it says smartreloader on the cap...
£ 20 posted isn't a bad price... 1/2 the price of the lee...

I couldn't find any reviews on them tho, hence my question..

Thanks for your thoughts..
 
It has been my misfortune to look at a number of Smartreloader products. Presses, scales, powder measures, tricklers etc.

They were crudely made Chinese ripoffs of reputable makes, the presses in particular were shockingly bad.

If you saw one "in the flesh" I think you would walk away in horror. They really are that bad.

Hardly half the price, the Lee is £27.48 inc. shipping from Kranks (when they have stock that is!). I'd wait and buy a Lee :)

Just had a Google, £23 to £28 at Dauntsey, Opticswarehouse, Valmont, Sportsman etc.
