When loading .223 etc I only use the thrower and check every 20 or so.

Me too - 2213sc gets caught up a bit, so I always throw a tad light into the pan of my scales and trickle up from there. I added a short section of nylon tube to the bottom of my thrower so the powder doesn't bounce out everywhere. Every so often I get an empty throw and the next one comes out as a double charge, so I'd never throw straight into the funnel.
