Made up this .54 caliber combination loading block/powder measure to go with my Hawken. Now I just need a clear shot.

I like it, never have I seen a combination tool that went together as well as your loading block/powder measure. Might I suggest a loading block made like yours with a powder measure of antler. Just thinking out loud.
Nice work!

Thank you. Combining this loading block concept with an antler powder measure will require a bit more creativity. The brass measure works well due to its small, straight and uniform diameter. Antlers are challenging to drill to the required depth.
