Need new Scales......Which one perfectionist type recommendations needed!

pre-ordered in March got mine in Nov. from CE products. Was using a Chargemaster for the past 10 years. The V4 is very fast and accurate- I love it. Adam has a 5 hour video on YouTube that is very good.
 
OK, scales on the way. V4 ordered. Maybe the V4 gets here sooner than later. Thanks guys for the info.
+1 on this approach! I did the same thing and got my FX-120i scale this last Tuesday! I am expecting the V4 in June.

When you get the FX-120i you will find the 100-gram check weight in the bottom of the box wrapped in bubble-wrap. it is easy to miss, so don't get in a hurry disposing of the boxes.
 
I preordered my 120 V4 in April 2021 last year still waiting got the scale but not the trickler? Still waiting? I had to pay full price up front to get in line?
 
This probably won't help, but I just saw where they're asking all Canadians and any US truckers who drive to Canada to start a sit down tomorrow for as long as it takes. Orders from Canada are likely to be even further delayed...

good for them!! stand against a dictator!!
 
Definitely go with the fx120i and the V4. My v4 just arrived and I'm hoping to get it setup this long weekend. Will be nice upgrade from my Frankford Intellidropper.

The Intellidropper actually worked pretty well for me but it was a bit slow with N565. I probably had 1 out of 100 where it overthrew, all others were spot on. You could tide yourself over with a Intellidropper while you wait until May-July for the V4. Buy for under $200 (I've got a backup one new in box I'd sell for $190 shipped) and probably sell for at least $100 when your V4 comes in.
I'd be interested in the intellidropper if your looking to sell it.
 
OK...I'm very experienced and not a newb for all you that want to treat me like a newb.

Looking at the A&D FX-120i setup with the auto trickler system or the RCBS Match Master. RCBS is a litte cheaper but that's not a factor so which one of these two setups or would any of you match shooters recommend another setup. I currently have an Older A&D not sure the model but it weighs to .02 grains which I like cause I'm a exact kinda perfectionist freak. I know I can get the FX-120i now but the kit would be delayed. I could use the scale by itself until the kit comes in. Thought's
I am probably what you would call a newb, and have only been at it for six years now, and I to am looking for a 100ths scale (.00). I have had a RCBS Match Master for 4 years now and repeatedly have problems with it repeating to .1, and the trickler is too slow for me. Seems to stick and not settle when it is trying to figure out the weight. I did call RCBS on it and they say it is not repairable and there is nothing they could do, so it has become an expensive throw away. I have taken to not programing it and hand loading the powder into the tray using weights to periodically to ensure I am getting the loads correct. Hand loading the scale is much faster than the trickler. Also have used a GemPro 250 with the same sticking problems and they too said it is not repairable.
