Rcbs Comp Powder Measure Pist/sm Rfl

The RCBS Competition Powder Measure Pistol/Small Rifle is a precision metering device engineered for handloaders who demand consistency across their ammunition production. Built on RCBS's proven Uniflow Powder Measure platform, this model handles the full range of pistol and small rifle cartridge requirements—metering from 0.5 to 40 grains—making it essential equipment for serious reloaders developing match-grade pistol loads or small rifle cartridges.

The core technology centers on a precision-ground metering drum paired with a honed main casting, the foundation of charge-weight accuracy. A powder baffle controls flow dynamics to prevent bridging and ensure uniform powder column formation, while the micrometer adjustment screw delivers repeatable, fine-increment changes in charge weight without requiring full drum repositioning. This design accommodates all standard smokeless powder types—ball, flake, and stick configurations—without requiring separate tools or extensive cleaning between powder changes. The 5 × 2.75 × 11-inch footprint positions naturally within standard reloading bench setups without consuming excessive workspace.

This measure suits handloaders developing pistol loads for competition shooting, duty ammunition testing, and small rifle cartridges where batch consistency directly impacts downrange performance. Competitors relying on load development understand that metering precision—measured in the tenth-of-a-grain range—translates to tighter velocity windows and predictable point-of-impact shifts. The RCBS Competition line is purpose-built for reloaders who treat ammunition manufacturing as a controlled process, not a mass-production operation.
