The new Matchmaster Powder Funnel
RCBS calls it the “fastest funnel available,” partly due to the aluminum funnel itself wearing a non-stick coating to keep powder granules moving “without a grain left behind,” RCBS says.
A UNIFLOW FOR COMPETITION
One update is revisiting the powder baffle in the hopper, long trusted to regulate powder compression at the bottom of the powder column, which equates to more consistent charge weights. RCBS improved the hopper, as well, in giving it threads for easy removal for cleaning.
Secondly, the UPM-3 utilizes a single cylinder for rifle and pistol powders—extruded, ball and flake—rather than separate cylinders as in the original Uniflow Powder Measure. The single cylinder will meter from 0.5 grain to 100 grains, depending upon powder type.
