Rob, I don't like it for a powder loader, by virtue of the fact that it
has no means to limit the amount of the charge. Powder piston loaders
almost all have a means to meter out a fixed amount of powder per stroke.

That one seems to just admit powder more-or-less endlessly, without any
particular method of stopping it. The tip would ram it, but what would
stop the powder remaining in the tube from just 'drizzling out' when it
was removed from the sprue it was intended to fill?

No... being a pyro person, I'm not happy with that being _anything_ to
load powder into _anything_.
(could be wrong, though. wouldn't be the first time!)

I agree that it's unlikely to be a powder loader, looks like this one will
remain
unsolved for a while.
