[QUOTE="338winmag, post: 531168, member: 29912"] I have just bought my ChargeMaster 1500 and dispenser and thrown about 200 loads. I have also noticed a few times where if I left charge sitting for 15-30 minutes and come back, the thrown weight was about .4 - .5 grns overweight. I check to make sure it is not some powder kernals falling in after the throw is complete and this is not happening. If I lifted the pan, the pan weight was now registering 158.X instead of the original 159.2. I never checked yet to see if after dispensing another charge or two if the pan weight goes back to the correct 159.2. What I have done in the past is turn off the scale and start all over with the calibration and move on. I have also used my RCBS 5-0-5 to verify the weight and the charge appeared very accurate so it has me a little bewildered as well. Now that I see someone else has experienced this, I will do some additional testing today or tomorrow to see if this is really affecting anything. If so, I will call RCBS. P.S. I have not in the past waited long before start using the scale. (Maybe 5-10 minutes. Not sure if that is affecting the issue. Otherwise I love this product so far. 338winmag [/QUOTE]
