has anyone use this one: Frankford Arsenal Micro Reloading Electronic Powder Scale 750 Grain Capacity - $25 plus shipping from midway




I am leaning to the lee safty scale. I just need something basic. I only reload 30-06 rounds just to hunt with so I don't need anything too major. I want to work a midway load, not too much recoil (have a bad shoulder) but enough to get me to 100+ and the dipper I have only gets me max loads.

Watch out for the scales with plastic bodies. They can be very sensitive to static electricity. Spend a little more and get an RCBS 5-0-5, a ReddingModel #2 or other quality scale.
