Ideal Manufacturing #6 is this for black powder
In doing some relatives spring cleaning i came an item that is unknown to me...
 I think the patent date is 1882 or 1892 Is this a black powder dispenser?

In answer to your question: the possibility of a static electricity generated spark from the operation of the measure is generally considered to preclude its use with black powder.
That may be wrong - they say you should not shoot damascus barreled shotguns too.

Regular old Lyman powder measure for reloading metallic cartridges. Looks to still have its lid so that will help the value.
The iron it's made out of will not create static. I'd be more worried about the newer ones with the plastic hoppers. I'd suspect the date is 1892 - since smokeless powder was invented in 1884. Last edited by M1NM; 06-09-2022 at 12:52 PM..

Looks like the moving parts are brass to minimize the chances of igniting powder.
