I have used lee dies for years and have had no problem with them. Also use a lot of other lee items. The collet dies have really worked well and groups have gotten smaller since I started uusing them.

RE: powder scale?

I used a Bonanza beam scale for a few years and then went to a PACT BBK 2 electronic scale and my groups shrunk. It is small and easy to use and works real well.
