A&D FX120i

[Varmint Hunter]

I use a RCBS Chargemaster Supreme and have no complaints. I do produce ammo with single digit SDs (at times) which makes me believe that the scale is accurate. However, I chronograph every round fired and do see velocities that are suspicious. An occasional shot from a known load that produces a velocity 50-60fps out of the norm or just some rather high SDs with very carefully loaded ammo.

So .... I decided to just suck it up and to buy an A&D FX120i. I will still use the Chargemaster but I want to verify the weights until I better understand what is going on with the velocities that bother me.

Where is the best place to buy an A&D FX120i? And can I add the trickler later if I decide to go that route?

I purchased mine from CE Products. You can add the Trickler later if you want. I don't use one though .

Im in the same boat as you. Will you keep me posted on your findings?

I see Amazon has them also for $514

I found all three of my Chargemasters to be slow, too slow for even an old slow-talking southern boy.
I could throw a charge with a RCBS Uniflow and trickle with a Dandy Trickler much quicker. Things really have been more accurate, faster and all around easier with the AT V3 and FX-120 digital scale. The unit on Amazon is the best place to buy IMO.

Macdonald Innovations is another source.

Wait, I got the Autotrickler there. Can't remember where the scales came from..??

Another option for trickling with the FX is the Dandy plus this.

Tell me more. Is that controller that talks to the scale and runs the dandy ?

Actually, the scale talks to the controller but, yes, it controls the Dandy. If you want to look over the manual I can send it via email.
For reference - Controller

Once you see the consistency of the fx120i, it's an eye opener. Fliers disappear. I weighed load on RCBS 2000 using every trick to get best accuracy and then placed on FX120i. Oh crapola!!!

Get a Super Trickler! and THE FZ120i Scale. Buy Once Cry Once!!!

That would have to be next incremental step. LOL

Are there other benefits of the FZ over the FX beyond the internal calibration?
