Brass-smith Powder Measure Stand

The Brass Smith Powder Measure Stand from Lyman gives a reloader a dedicated mounting point for a powder measure, keeping it off the press and within easy reach at the bench. It's built for handloaders who weigh and drop charges as a separate station rather than crowding the operation onto a single press. Mounting the measure at a fixed height lets the cylinder clear a powder pan or scale tray below, so charges drop straight into the pan without spillage. For anyone running a deliberate, weigh-every-charge workflow, a stable stand removes the wobble and inconsistency that come from a measure clamped to a shifting fixture.

The stand positions the measure at a working height that clears a scale pan or trickler underneath, which matters when you're throwing a charge slightly light and finishing it on a powder trickler. Standard powder measure threads let it accept Lyman measures along with most common units that share the same mounting collar. Because the measure stays fixed instead of riding on the press ram, every pull of the handle starts from the same position, which helps keep thrown charges repeatable. The base is drilled for bench mounting, so it bolts down solid alongside a press, scale, or other reloading stations. Per Lyman specifications, the unit ships with an overall length of roughly 38.95 inches in its packaged form.

A reloader running precision rifle loads or working up loads for the range will use this stand as a permanent powder-throwing station, freeing the press for sizing and seating. Pair it with a quality measure and a precision scale and you have a clean, repeatable charging step that doesn't compete for press time. It also keeps the powder hopper at eye level for checking levels mid-session.
