So Lyman says not to use their Lyman #55 powder measure for black powder, you should use the #55 Classic Black Powder measure.
The black powder one is $140, the other one is $83. The one for black powder is made with aluminum and brass parts:
"The Lyman #55 Classic Black Powder Measure is a redesign of the #55 powder measure. It is a must have for blackpowder cartridge silhouette and cowboy action shooters. The internal metering bars rotate in a non-sparking brass sleeve while a large non-static aluminum powder reservoir holds a pound of blackpowder."
I know that Goex is now shipping in plastic containers, so static must not be much of an issue.
What do you guys think? I've heard a lot of you are using the cheaper one.
