Lyman DPS scales

Is anyone using the Lyman DPS series of scales? My Midway catalog lists a DPS 3 system that I'm considering. One of my friends has one and swears by it. I've never cared much for electronic balances and have owned one in the past.
Any input out there?

I have had a DPS3 for 6 months and love it. I saw a DPS3 on another board for sale for $200... let me see if I can remember which one.

.....Single digit ES just about nailed the lid on for me, jk. That's great.
Hairtrigger..If you can come up with that site or any info such as e-mail address, I'd appreciate it if you would pass it on to me. PM or e-mail me if you would. It could save me some money...
Thanks...... Don.

If you get one, I would love to try one. Might have to run up some time this year and see it.

Try and find a II for cheap and then just put the upgrade kit in it.

RE: Lyman DPS scales

I have a DPS 2 that performs excellent. I have kept my RCBS 505 as a backup, but haven't used it for a while other than to check loads. The dps is fast enough that by the time I have a bullet seated the next one is ready to pour and seat. You'll love it. I'll never go back to a teaspoon and trickler again.

If you find the DPSII, I'll give you my upgrade kit for cheap. It dispensed way to fast for me!
