[QUOTE="7magcreedmoor, post: 955926, member: 48559"] I weigh everything, using my rcbs powder measure (with the baffle and the micrometer stem) set just a tiny bit light, and trickle to desired charge on my plain old fashioned balance beam scale (also rcbs). I tried digital scales when they were flavor of the month, but they drove me nuts with variation, drifting out of calibration two or three times during a batch. My balance beam doesn't drift (I kept all the check weights that came with the fancy gizmo scales) and out of curiosity when everybody and their brother was talking about how fast the all-in-one scale/dispensers are supposed to be, I ran a timer on a couple batches with my setup and found that I average 50 loads in cases in 25 minutes, each weighed, no estimating, no guessing. I don't need to be faster, and even if the gizmo were faster, I would have to wonder about that "calibration drift" problem... [/QUOTE]
