Area 419’s Stackable Drop Tube (brand part no. 419-FN-DROP) is a 3-inch powder drop tube built for use with the Area 419 Interchangeable Head powder funnel system, used when a handloader needs to fill a case beyond what’s normally achievable with extruded powders. The longer drop combined with a relatively small internal bore lets kernels of powder settle and fill the case more fully than a standard funnel alone. Multiple 3-inch tubes can be attached together to build any multiple of 3 inches in total drop length, and caliber-specific heads attach to the end of the tube for a precise fit. It’s machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a Type II anodized coating for durability. Note that the funnel itself is sold separately. For reloaders standardized on Area 419 powder-handling gear, this reloading accessory improves case fill on extruded powder charges.
