I have set of Lee Powder Measures.They are all marked in CC. Does anyone know the formula to convert CC's to Powder Grain?

    There is no formula to convert CC's to grains. Cubic centemeters is a measure of volume. Grains is a measure of weight.You have to use Lee load data that tells you which CC dipper to use.I honestly would recommend another method of measuring powder.

    I throw the things away and use a powder scale. It's the only way to get an accurate measure.
    So many guns to buy. So little money.

    Have the complete set of Lee powder scoops. Will use the one that throws a few grains below the charge I'm wanting, then trickle charge on the digital scale until desired load is obtained. This is quicker than even using a powder measure to throw charges, then trickle up.
