i hear ya on the scale BC...the digital jobs (well my PACT atleast) is a sensitive bugger...if the TV is on much louder than barely audible, its throwing the scale off...if i turn the heater on in the basement, the scale is off...if someone walks within 10ft of me on a REALLY soft floor with concrete under the carpet, its off...if the cat walks near the scale, its off...if i move my hand down fast like im going to smash it, its off...

gotta realize all the when running one i guess...

took a little getting used to...but i keep an eye on it and check my charged cases for any that "look funny" and every couple charges i'll throw a check weight on just to check it...cant hurt to check things...


i just cant see a measurer/thrower throwing precise charges...if its off at all, its gunna be just as quick for me to throw a spoonful on the scale then use my trickler to finish it off...i just couldnt see spending almost 100$ for something to do what i can do without it...but, thats when i want precision...when i want bulk and am not worried about tenths of a grain, a thrower might be the way to go for pistol and my AR loadings...

im about as new to handloading as you can get..i didnt blow myself up with my first 50rds though...im just hear to learn...and i know reloading is like anything else...lots of different ways to end up with the same final product...
