ARCALOCK Clamp and Barricade Stop Kit 
Powder Cup – For Autotrickler and Similar Lab Balances
$70.00
Description
At Area 419 we became frustrated with undersized or cheap-feeling powder cups. As the Auto-Trickler system became more popular, and the Auto-Throw system was added, we needed something that was up to the task from both a function and form standpoint.
Introducing, the Area 419 Billet Powder Cup. Lathe spun from billet 6061 Aluminum and weighing in at just over 700 grains this cup has a water weight capacity of more than 750 grains and will allow you to throw nearly three full 50BMG loads into the cup at once.
Of course you aren’t going to triple-charge a 50 cal like an idiot, but the over-sized cup will contain powder and splash from dispensers that are dropping powder from above, provided you use them with some sort of flow-slowing device (like the straws that come in the Auto-Throw kit). Nothing short of about a 5″ cup can contain splash if you’re dropping from above with no restriction.
It can also function as a shot glass for you deplorables out there, but that’s not why we designed it.
Cup is roughly 2″ in diameter and 2″ tall. The handle sticks out about 3″.

Great product, only complaint is the handle is a little loose. But still would recommend this product

I returned the power cup because it was too short to work with my Auto Trickler and the powder splashed out badly. The cup was beautifully made and packed just a bit short.
Michael Riksheim (verified owner) –
Much better than the glass autotrickler cup. It took a couple of times to fine tune the perfect place on the scale, but no more powder bouncing out!

Bought this to replace the Fx v4 glass cup. Powder stuck in the glass and is hard to see, this is much better.

I’m completely confused how this could be given 5 stars. Yes, it is machined amazingly. Yes, it is super light. But no, it does not work well with the AutoTrickler V4. I wish it did. It does not. This is well known on forums like snipershide. When using a fine kernel powder like TAC, you will absolutely be throwing kernels all over the scale no matter where you place the cup under the discharge funnel. Makes no difference. You’ll get kernels that bounce out of the A419 cup. The stock glass cup does not do this. And if you pay attention to the design, you’ll see why. The AutoTrickler cup slopes inwards to provide a gentle sloping so that nothing bounces off the bottom. The A419 cup does not do this and powder just hits the bottom. The bottom of the cup is machined with a slight slope but this isn’t anywhere near what it needs to be to prevent small kernels like TAC from bouncing out. This cup needs a redesign. The stock glass cup functions flawlessly … but is nowhere as nice, light, or static resistant as the A419 one.

I don’t know how I lived without this powder cup. Also having the replacement self-centering tray for fx balances makes for a perfect pairing.
Both are well-constructed and solid-feeling. Highly-recommended.

Verified Buyer (verified owner) –
Great product. Very happy with it. The only thing I would mention, and this is my fault, but be sure to wipe it down with some degreaser or alcohol before using. Mine had some residual cutting fluid or oil of some kind on the inside which caused the first powder charge to stick to the inside of the cup.

Arthur Morgan (verified owner) –
The usual spectacular quality for Area 419 is on full display with this powder cup, so why only 4 stars? Users of the Auto Trickler V4 should be aware you will have to move the cup guide on the scale further back to center the 419 cup under the powder dispenser, this is a P.I.T.A. as you have to gently remove it from its adhesive and carefully align it in another spot. Also powder dispensed into the 419 cup bounces out more than the OEM cup leaving granules around the scale. Lastly VV N133 always leaves a few granules stuck to the bottom of the cup.

Ridiculously cheap handle. I think the Autotrickler powder cup is far superior
Stephane Block (verified owner) –
Perfect
Haydn Doughty (verified owner) –
Nice, large capacity.. Unfortunately it seems to have static cling as after dumping the charge, several individual grains are left on the sides of the cup typically greater than 10 individual pieces. Tried cleaning the cup, drying but the results were the same, static cling.
Darren (verified owner) –
Excellent quality
John Haley (verified owner) –
The cup is great, I think the handle could be at least a 1/2″ higher. There needs to be an option to get a stick-on centering device also, at least when using the A&D FX120-i

This was a great addition to my AutoTrickler V4. Once I found a sweet spot on the platen, I haven’t had any errant kernels bounce out of the cop. It has the quality and clean machining that we’ve all come to expect from the Area 419 team!

Best $70 ever. Was soo irritated with the stock “glass” cups. Powder EVERYWHERE, even with the special CNC dropper. This thing is dope, had like two grains manage to escape during a 300 round loading day. No complaints.

What’s not to like, no more static or kernels jumping out of the pan!

Far better than the cups that came with the V-4, since they are aluminum I could sand some off the bottom and match the weights perfectly so I can use them in tandem while I was reloading and speed things up
Thomas M. (verified owner) –
Still waiting for my AutoTrickler but I have been able to use this with my scale in the meantime. This is a great companion piece to go with the AutoTrickler system.

Their products are always top notch. They are pricey but they are of the highest quality. You buy once cry once.
Darrin H. (verified owner) –
I give it a 4 because, although it is made wonderfully, I am not able to use it efficiently. I can’t pour a kernel or two back into my trickler because it doesn’t have a spout, so to speak. My fault for not considering this.
However, I’m sure it’s a perfect cup for the autotrickler systems.

Awesome build quality, good handle length. Cup material itself is prone to static sticking of kernels, but not much they can do about that.

Form, fit, & finish are everything I’ve come to expect from the 419 team…and it just looks like it belongs on the Autotrickler vs. the “cheap” looking OEM cup

Works pretty well with AT platen in place. Probably works better with Area 419 type. My only gripe is smaller, finer powder and ball powder still tends to spill some.

Big improvement over the cup that comes with the auto trickler. The longer handle is great.
Antonio G. (verified owner) –
I found this powder cup to be perfect for my needs. I use an A&D 120i scale for measuring my powder and this cup fits perfectly between the top of the scale and the plate. I also use a Dandy Trickler for loads and put both, the cup and trickler tube through the same wind screen opening. The powder cup it self is great. It’s very light and is deep enough to keep powder from bouncing out. And the handle is the perfect length for getting the cup to the center of the plate on my scale. I’m waiting on the V3 Auto Trickler system to arrive, which will make reloading a lot easier. Until then, this powder cup is making everything work perfectly. If you are on the fence about getting one like I was, do your self a favor and get it. I know it’s expensive, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. And this is worth it.

Had some issues at first with the cup holding static. But after washing with warm soapy water and rubbing a dryer sheet on it, it’s the best damn powder cup i’ve used. No more powder splashing out, no more small dinky handles, it’s everything you want and more in a powder cup.
Jeanne R. (verified owner) –
Well made at a fair price, and as always, great care taken in packaging and shipping. Perfect, as always.

This is my second cup. Got it so I can be filling one cup on the scale while dumping the other cup. Really speeds up charging cases.

Love this over the standard Autotrickler cup. Nicely balanced easy to use
Jon P. (verified owner) –
I like everything about this with one exception, it would be nice if the handle wasn’t at a 90 degree angle to the cup, rather a slight upward, a bend like some silverware or just moving the handle half way up the cup would be helpful to give users more finger room when inserting it into tight spaces.
Kyle Marsh (verified owner) –
I purchased to minimize the over splash of powder. Still need the centering tray to maximize this benefit (they are out of stock right now or i would have it.)
Gene B. (verified owner) –
Perfect match with the straw replacement. No more powder splashing out of the cup.
Johnny Sprinkle (verified owner) –
Nice product.
Tommy R. (verified owner) –
This thing is awesome! Many powder cups are so small that you have a hard time grabbing ahold of the cup worrying you might accidentally spill your powder that you just weighed. Not with this powder cup! There is a large handle that makes this thing the perfect addition to my A&D FX120i scale. It does sit a little higher then your typical powder cup so if you’re not running an autotrickler then you’ll want to make a base for your normal trickler as they won’t sit high enough with it on your scale. Other than that, you won’t regret purchasing this powder cup.
Derrick Crabtree (verified owner) –
The screw was loose and the handle would move freely. Alittle bit of glue and it works fine.
Walter R. (verified owner) –
Good size, very good haptic.
Richard Byars (verified owner) –
I bought two! With very little filing I got them both to the same weight. Now I am charging a case with one while the other fills. The cups along with the centering tray really sped up the case charging while maintaining the accuracy. No buyers remorse.
John (verified owner) –
Excellent addition to the Autotrickler and Autothrow.
Dennis (verified owner) –
All of the above reviews are right! All that I have had to do is adjust my technique for the powder cup placement & pickup on the scale. Once there, no worries!
marinekoclr37 (verified owner) –
I was previously using a stainless steal 1/4cup from a set of measuring cups. I had to cut the handle down for it to balance on it’s own. While I did not see any issues in accuracy, it definitely took a couple extra seconds on every throw to settle. With the Area 419 cup my Auto-Trickler set up now throws charges faster than I can seat bullets. The reloading flow is never interrupted waiting for the scale to finish. This cup doesn’t wobble at all and the powder settles instantly. Once again leaning on Area 419 has lead to another very satisfying purchase that I have 0 complaints about! Thanks again guys and thank you for listening to us! Keep filling the market gaps!
Shane Weaver (verified owner) –
Fantastic product. This is an absolute must have item. No more powder splashing out of the flimsy plastic cup.
cfreeman (verified owner) –
This cup is frickin awesome. It pretty much eliminates powder bouncing out, and has more weight than the plastic cup so it’s more stable and harder to spill. Works great with the billet base for the trickler when the straw is adjusted like the last reviewer said. It seems like it makes the autothrowertrickler run faster, and I know it runs better because there’s less static. Great product!
ericbciphone (verified owner) –
FYI, adjust your straw drop tube to have a significant bend to slow powder down and direct the output to the lower 1/3 of the cup to create a sort of “swirled”
This will eliminate the powder bounce completely
ericbciphone (verified owner) –
This cup is awesome! The machining is first rate and the smooth round bottom of the cup will eliminate “powder bounce” if you adjust the straw correctly. I have not used it with every type of powder but I have no reason to think I can’t adjust the “trickler” to make powder bounce a non issue.
ericbciphone (verified owner) –
Good concept, will score it as soon as I get it!
