Powder drop tubes are used when trying to fill cases beyond what is normally achievable with extruded powders.  The longer drop combined with relatively small internal bore allows the kernels of powder to fill the case more fully.

  • Tubes are for use only with the Area 419 Interchangeable head powder funnel system
  • 3″ Long
  • Can be attached together to form any multiple of 3″ length
  • Caliber specific heads attach to the end of the drop tube
  • Machined from solid 6061-T6 Aluminum
  • Type II Anodized
Weight .2 lbs
Dimensions 3 × .8 × .8 in

    Roger Veth (verified owner) – May 1, 2021

    Again, this product works perfectly as designed. It’s such a simple idea, but is engineered to perfection. Other drop tubes I’ve used are usually not so easy to attach to the funnel or the head. The threads on this one are machined perfectly and work with the other parts with ease.

    There are certain things you see in passing that make you think “no way that actually works”. I’ll admit this was one of those things for me, but I will also admit I was very wrong. If you use larger extruded powders and are tired of crispy crunchy noises and want to actually send loads so hot that it makes you question your existence every single trigger pull without over filling the case. Get one of these tubes for your funnel and get to sending. It works.
