[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 794065, member: 11717"] I don't know how I can explain this any clearer but I have checked my Chargemaster with the 250 gr check weight that came with my 10-10. It reads 250.0 gr. That is to +/- .05 gr accuracy, not +/- .9 gr. I also occasionally weigh a Chargemaster charge on the 10-10 and it always checks out. +/- .05 gr amounts to about 2 kernels of Retumbo. My chronograph doesn't know the the difference with ES's of 10-20 fps. If you old school balance beam guys like your manual scales that's fine. But you should get your facts straight before posting stuff in the forums. When I'm set up, I can charge and seat about 4-5 cases with the Chargemaster for every 1 I can do manually. When I take a charge off the scale and pour it in the case, I dispense another charge while I'm seating the bullet... works great! And when I'm pressure or ladder testing, I don't have to mess with scale adjustments for each new increment. Just punch in 65 and dispense, 66 and dispense, 67 and dispense, etc. I can not imagine going back to the manual way. [/QUOTE]
