[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 534643, member: 12"] Yes that is possible at 100 yards, but absolutely never at 1000! 1k loads are weighed to the 1/10 if not .05 grains or less. If you do not, vertical will eat you alive every time. Now that might work for "hitting a 3 ft rock" but that will equate to 6-10 inches of excess vertical in a group at 1k. Now many think that is close enough, and if it is for you go for it. Here is a link on a new electronic scale that seems to be working very well. [URL]http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2011/08/review-of-the-gempro-250-scale-from-my-weigh/[/URL] I use a Ohaus Navigator that weighs to the .05 grains BTW you can search 6mmbr for the guy who will "tune" the beam scales like the 10-10 for $20. Couple guys I know really like his work and say it makes a difference in there use. BH [/QUOTE]
