Charges Still Inconsistent

I decided to give the Hornady powder measure one more try, on the theory that the acetone I applied made the paint and plastic sticky and caused charges to be inconsistent. I filled the measure halfway and even tapped it once in a while.

Results? I’m getting something like +/- 0.5 grains. Screw it. I’ll wait for the pistol rotor and micrometer meter to arrive. I even ordered Hornady’s special dry lube and degreaser, which costs over a dollar per ounce.

Someone claims Dillon’s machines don’t come with an oily film on them. Can that be true?
