I'm thinking of switching to loose 777 powder this year. Need input on a powder measuring device. I really don't see a need of shooting more than 120 grains, but who knows. I'll be shooting (hopefully) the 290 gr. Knight Ultimate Slam bullet (same as the Barnes TMZ). Any advice? T/C Omega is my weapon of choice.
Thanks, Carl

I bought a clear plastic one with a "plunger" that is raised or lowered to the exact grain amount. It goes up to 120 but I leave it set at 80.
They are everywhere.
