The heart of this new measure is the MatchMaster Micrometer adjustable screw, which allows handloaders to make incredibly precise adjustments to their charge weights. What’s particularly impressive is the ability to record your settings and easily dial them back in for future loading sessions – a feature that competition shooters and precision reloaders will certainly appreciate.

Here are the key specifications and features:

• Metering Range: 0.5 to 100 grains with single metering cylinder
• Accuracy: .10 grain precision with Micrometer adjustment
• Construction: Durable cast iron
• Hopper Capacity: 1 pound
• Design: Ambidextrous with reversible handle
• Included Accessories: Drain attachment and two drop tubes
• Additional Features:
  • Powder baffle for controlled powder flow
  • Quick Change Drain Attachment
  • Threaded hopper for easy removal
  • Universal design for both rifle and pistol powders

At an MSRP of $199.95, the UPM-3 Competition represents RCBS’s highest-quality mechanical measure to date. The combination of the proven Uniflow Powder Measure design with the new powder baffle and Micrometer Adjustment Screw creates a system that should appeal to everyone from competition shooters to precision rifle enthusiasts.

One important note for reloaders: while this measure offers excellent precision, RCBS recommends using it in conjunction with an accurate powder scale for initial charge setting and periodic verification during use. Also worth noting is that this measure is not compatible with black powder.

The UPM-3 Competition Powder Measure is proudly made in America and is shipping to dealers nationwide. If you’re attending SHOT Show, you can check it out at RCBS Booth #13846 along with their other 2025 new products.
