Is there a way to use a powder funnel on the powder stage?
I'm looking to start getting my loads from an auto-meter and want to pour each load so it's as accurate as possible.

We sell a different powder die, #16629 and corresponding funnel #16617, just for this. The case funnel is secured inside the die via a set screw, and the funnel is a snug fit into the top of this die. This die is NOT compatible with the automatic powder measure.

That sounds like my next order. It's for .308 Winchester. Do I need to order the powder funnel for that caliber or is all I need those two parts?

Now I'm also unsure if I should get the AT 500 Oversized Powder Die.
I have a 550b and this would be used for .308 loads.

If you have purchased a caliber conversion kit for .308 Winchester, the funnel is part of the conversion kit. Otherwise, it is not included with the powder die. The oversize die is only for cases larger than .532" in diameter, such as 500 S&W, 50AE, the various WSM?WSSM and RUM cartridges. .308 Winchester uses the standard die.
