These upgrades are not endorsed or manufactured by Lee.

All these upgrades are 3D printed in PETG. this is the same plastic as fizzy drinks bottles, its a strong waterproof plastic ideally suited to these parts.

Please note 3D printing is very slow with the primer collector system taking over 18 hours therefore I only keep a few in stock and print others as needed, please contact me in advance if you want more than 3 of any product.

If you have already bought a Lee Precision Powder Measure Bottle Adapter

You can use this upgrade hopper kit in addition, it gives you all the advantages of the above kit but allows you to use the original adaptor as well. The kit consists of a 3d printed adaptor, a half kilogram capacity hopper ( depending on the powder density), a powder baffle to eliminate variations in the amount of powder thrown due to the weight of the powder stack, and a lid to seal the top of the hopper. The lid is a firm fit so wont fall of like the lee one does. The original hopper also suffers from  variations in the amount of powder thrown, I sell a custom size powder baffle to eliminate this as well (see below)   23.5 cm tall by 6.7 cm wide  £12.00

This kit is also available with a 17.5 cm tall by 8.0 cm wide container as shown below in the wide body upgrade kit £12.00

Either Kit is available without powder baffle for £8.00

It holds slightly more powder than the original and the plastic is not transparent in the same way as the original.

Comes with powder hopper, lid and 2 machine screws that can be used with a single disk. Longer screws are available if you use a disk doubler kit. £10.00

Disk Doubler Kit

I have found most people own more than 1 powder measure and usually do not want another set of disks so I sell just the risers and extra long screws. This reduces the cost by at least 50%. If you want a superior disk double kit then buy one of the Lee Auto-Disk Adjustable Powder Charge Bar and you have the ultimate in powder measuring.   This kit raises the hopper of the Lee Pro Auto-Disk Powder Measure so you can stack two disks. This not only doubles the capacity of the disks, but it makes very fine adjustments possible. Most powders can be adjusted +/-.1 grain with different combinations of disks.  Screws and risers only. £8.00

Technical Information

Kit raises powder hopper permitting two disks to be stacked in powder measure, Allows the user to double the capacity and make very fine adjustments. Most powders can be adjusted up or down in 1/10th grain increments using different combinations of disks. Allows 308 and other similar size  rifle loads to be thrown (Maximum throw is approx 45 grains of accurate 2460). will not throw enough powder for large magnum cartridges such as the 300 win mag and such like

 

I can also supply Disk Tripler Kits if there is a need at £10.00

Not yet tested but if you are interested contact me and i will test one before sending it out. It is theoretically possible to make a Disk quadrupler. if you want one just ask and I will print one out will be £12.00.
 

Powder Baffle (Old Red Hopper)

This powder baffle sits inside a perfect powder measure  the lee auto disk pro or the any lee powder measure with a round hopper. £5.00

The powder sits above the baffle and can only fill the space underneath  through the cut-outs, this keeps the weight of powder entering the  measuring chamber constant. Normally the weight of powder pressing the powder into the chamber changes as the powder is used up and the weight of powder metered also changes.
