...it came with 4 powder discs with multiple sized holes for powder, but they seem to be measured in CC's.
I can't find a comparison chart online and I want to use 9 gr of Unique for my .45 Colt reloads. Anyone know what size hole I should be using ?
Thanks

Go to the link below. It is the "DIPPER CAPACITYS" document. According to the chart, 1 cc is 9.2 grs of Unique.
If you don't have a manual for the press, you should also get the "PRO 1000" document.

I recommend checking the weight of the charges thrown with a powder scale.

 :)Howdy Pard, I happen to have a couple of those charts and would be happy to mail or email you one, but do check everything with a good scale. Look me up and get in touch if you are interested.
