[QUOTE="Bob2650, post: 1984374, member: 112280"] Haven't been to a match in a long time but way back in the old daze when I was shooting benchrest the winners were throwing powder by volume, not weight. There is an art to using a powder measure but it is not difficult. When you use lab grade $cales or even the cheap drug dealer grade scales that claim to measure to hundredths of a grain all kind of strange things can affect the readings. The result is less confidence in the load. Think in terms of the percent of the load and velocity SD instead of hundredths of a grain. Just because you can measure it does not make it the most important thing. I found that a super good SD comes from the correct load, not neccessarily the most precisely weighed load. [/QUOTE]
