[QUOTE="blvette75, post: 1984424, member: 72440"] I use an inexpensive lab scale weighs down to 1 mg or 0.0154 grains, has cheap plastic to block wind, from ventilation and movement, must re-zero often, it is not a good mettler or Ohauslab scale. Since I no longer run laboratories had to get something, have to let the weight stabilize each time. Instructions are light and the one I bought has a calibration feature, but haven't gotten it to work. Bought on Amazon and a set of calibration weights. [URL]https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0146B55VW/?tag=lrhmag19-20[/URL] This is not the one I bought but it looks like the same unit with a different name (one I bought isn't in stock). This is the Ohaus I would've have bought if the cheaper one didn't work, but either one have to have a rock solid surface with a concrete floor and make sure it is level. [SIZE=7][B]Ohaus SPX123 Scout Portable Balance 120G x 0.001g[/B][/SIZE] Good luck, using one of these saves me time on reload setup and eliminates most of the variability on velocity especially when I weigh powder charge target, to match bullet weight variability. As the bullet weight variability really shows up on using a balance with better resolution. [/QUOTE]
