maybe im a fool for liking and trusting a digital scale...but it works for me so far..i do want a beam scale just to have to check once in a while..just for piece of mind.....
a thrower might be alright...ive never used one...im guilty of dumping mine out of the can...but using a dipper or a bowl and spoon would be a better option...
im still learnin as i go...and havent messed with anything i dont own yet....but for handloading for rifles that you want accuracy not bulk and speed from, my method seems to be workin...im not in it for speed..im in it for consistency...if it takes me an hour or 2 to load a box, thats fine by me..that box will be loaded very well..brass will be prepped very well..charge will be weighed out etc..a thrower would only work to throw a charge...and if it wasnt exact them im still stuck fixing the charge to get it exact..though id like a thrower for pistols and loading for my AR...i just dont see the need for one for handloading rifle loads..
but theres more than one way to skin a coon...and theres more than one way to load a case...
I too would love to have a decent scale. I own a RCBS digital and a frankfort arsonel. Works good as long as on batteries. My reloading room is near my dryer. So when any electromagnetic motors or high current runs, I get lies. Scares me to death. Maybe not for rifle, as you are usually 90% load density, but loading up pistol rounds can be scary.
Sorry if i came off rough.
