Default RE: Picture of Scale Favor

ORIGINAL: statjunk

Hey guys,

I've decided that I'm not going to reload another shell until I get a new scale capable of high precision weights. I'm also going to get a set of check weights. Actually I can't believe I've gone this long without a set of check weights but that's dabbling on a budget.

Either way I've gone to all the places and none of the stores have any scales in stock other than the electronic ones. I want to stick with a balance type scale. I already have a Lyman 1000 so I don't need any pics of that one. Can some of you guys send me some real close pics of your scales?

The issue I have the with my Lyman is that just regular use will cause the scale to move out slightly. For most guys that level of precision is fine but I want some thing that is very precise.

So what is the best balance scale on the market? I want a real scale that reads in grains.

If the pics are too big just send me an IM and I'll supply my email.

Thanks

Tom
I've heard of Lyman scales of doing that before, but i've never experienced it with a 505 or a 10 10...

As for precision weights... All you have to do is weigh a couple different size/cal bullets, record the weights right on them. Then check your scalewith them from time to time...

A 505 will weight out a powder charge more than accurate enough for anything you will ever load...
