Review: Could not ask for more from a trickler! - With over 1200 positive reviews on here I felt sure I would find answers to my specific questions, but to my disappointment, I did not. So... Yes, this is an amazingly accurate dispenser. How accurate? My high quality digital powder scale reads to one place to the right of the decimal (tenths). I have not seen many scales less than several hundred dollars with a higher resolution. That said, this trickler would be accurate enough to read to hundredths no doubt. As I load only pistol calibers, I used this item extensively with Winchester W244 ball powder and Hodgdon CFE pistol, HP-38 and Titegroup. All these powders differ slightly, some fine and powdery like Titegroup and some chunkier like HP-38. It worked great with all of them. I was a little miffed to see the product came with no instructions whatsoever; but then, it is fairly self-explanatory. Fill with powder above the metering rod (the horizontal bar you turn to dispense powder), then spin the rod until powder begins to trickle out of the end. It does take a bit of spinning to fill the worm thread that carries the powder down the rod There are what I consider a "coarse" and a "fine" knob on the rod end opposite the dispensing end. The larger diameter knurled knob is coarse while the rubber covered smaller diameter knob would be the fine. Using what I will call "blips" applied to turn the knob will yield approximately the following, differing slightly from powder to powder: - Two blips of the coarse knob (about one full revolution of the rod) will dispense one tenth of a grain, while four blips of the fine knob (also one revolution of the rod) will yield the same amount. I use a dipper to get close to my charge target in the scale pan, then trickle to the target charge. Dead accurate. Now, I don't always charge pistol ammo manually, but I just got a $600 Garmin chronograph (love it) and decided to do a broad spectrum high precision test load lot of 9mm, .38 Special and .44 Magnum loads to see just how consistent I can get velocities. This endeavor, while painful, would have been excruciating difficult without this trickler. Only one negative: Once you're done loading and want to clean up or change powders, quite a bit of powder remains in the lower half of the trickler reservoir no matter how much you shake and tap. The only remedy I've found is to remove the metering rod and wash the reservoir out followed by a thorough dry. I even tried swabbing it out with alcohol to lower surface tension and allow the powder to be dumped out, but no cigar. I'll live with it. I use Lee reloading products almost exclusively and have for 34 years, but this trickler joins my Frankford Arsenal dry tumbler and priming tool, and all are of the highest machine quality and flawless function. Can't go wrong and the price is more than fair. Review: Recommend - If you are considering a trickler, this is the best one, in terms of function and "tool grade" quality, in my opinion. And the best value for the money. It is heavy steel and very stable. The machining is clean and it is nice to have covers for the receptacle and tube. ## Features - SPECS: 4” H x 5” W - ACCURACY: Large powder capacity for small powder adjustments - EASE OF USE: Synthetic dust cover doubles as a non-skid base and the dispenser cover sits on the knob when not in use - VERSATILITY: Increased trickler height to fit almost all powder scales - DURABLE: Heavy machined steel to prevent tip overs ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AVUJ26C | | Best Sellers Rank | #54,510 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #232 in Gunsmithing Tools | | Brand Name | Frankford Arsenal | | Color | Blue/silver/white | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,359) | | Date First Available | December 28, 2012 | | Included Components | Powder Trickler | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 1 x 1 x 1 inches | | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 8.03 x 6.14 x 1.77 inches | | Item Weight | 1.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Battenfeld Technologies | | Material | Mixed | | Model Name | Powder Trickler | | Model Year | 2014 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Package Weight | 0.77 Kilograms | | Part Number | 903535 | | Size | One Size | | Style | Powder Trickler | | Suggested Users | unisex-adult | | Warranty Description | 1-year manufacturer | ## Images ![Powder Trickler with Large Powder Capacity and Convenient Height for Reloading, Blue - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kc4Vd1v-L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this work for separating stainless steel media from any caliber of brass?** A: The holes in the one I have will catch any brass .25 caliber and up. You'll need a large bucket or kitchen bowl to poor the pin media, water, and cleaned brass into to start the process. One of the 5 gallon buckets you can get at the big name hardware stores works great. This device is specifically sized to fit those buckets. For $3 it's a pretty easy decision versus trying to find something else that works as well. I highly recommend the magnet to pick up all the media and put it back into the tumbler. Hope that helps. **Q: Will this do steel powder thats flaky like alliant steel?** A: Should be fine for trickling a flake powder. I use for H4350, W748, W760 in rifle loads. The Winchester powders are ball and the H4350 is extruded tubular shape and it works fine for getting 0.10 gr load accuracy with all three. **Q: are two of these a better option than getting 2 of each specific calibers? I was going to get 2 for 9mm(#3) and 2 for the 380(#2s)** A: I reload multiple calibers and I would get these over anyone specific Caliber I have two of thoughts 2 rcbs and 2 hornady **Q: How can I extend the arm? Its a little short** A: Maybe if you fabricated your own. It's just an internally threaded metal tube with a hole drilled in one side for the powder to trickle into as you turn it. Me, I just put the trickler on a little platform next to my scales. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Could not ask for more from a trickler! *by 2***H on April 16, 2024* With over 1200 positive reviews on here I felt sure I would find answers to my specific questions, but to my disappointment, I did not.

Has a good weight and stays put when sprinkling powder with one hand. Good height to allow discharge spout to reach powder measuring bowl. ## Frequently Bought Together - Frankford Arsenal Powder Trickler with Large Powder Capacity and Convenient Height for Reloading, Blue - Frankford Arsenal DS-750 Digital Reloading Scale with LCD Display for Reloading, Weighing, Scale - MTM Universal Ammo Loading Tray Red (includes one tray) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/12676410-powder-trickler-with-large-powder-capacity-and-convenient-height-reloading](https://www.desertcart.us/products/12676410-powder-trickler-with-large-powder-capacity-and-convenient-height-reloading) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
