[QUOTE="turkeyguide, post: 2577873, member: 73441"] I just picked up a Lyman Gen 6 from a friend of mine brand new. I have never been comfortable with electronic measures and scales, but after leveling it and zeroing with check weights I started to throw charges. Not for specific loads, just to check it against my old Ohaus 1010 scale. It surprised the crap out of me as to how accurate this thing was, I never expected it. I even tried the auto throw feature where after you dump the pan and put it back on the platen the scale automatically re-zeroes and dispenses the next charge without touching any buttons. Again I was amazed. I'm still most comfortable with my old method of more than 50 years, throw from an RCBS uniflow with a micrometer metering screw and then trickling up onto the Ohaus 1010. But I must say this Lyman Gen 6 has really got me thinking, it certainly is easier on my old eyes to see the large digital display than it is to see the tiny graduation lines on my balance beam. Just my two cents worth. [/QUOTE]
