[QUOTE="Okanogan, post: 1162321, member: 90397"] I don't believe anyone on the thread has suggested powder charge weight variance of 0.02gr would be a significant one of the many variables affecting MV, ES & SD. In my case, agreeing that 0.02gr isn't a significant factor allows me to comfortably move on to work on other variables to try and bring my ES/SD down. It also avoids the need to workout what is a reasonable tolerance on powder weight control if 0.02gr is already accepted as below the meaningful threshold. Once I get my ES/SD where I want it, I have the option to back off weight control until it has some measured effect if I want/need to save some time. While working to improve my reloading though, I want to be working with one variable at a time so I have some means of measuring results objectively. I understand there are difference in approach by others, and that is fine with me. Agree completely with the earlier comment about not staying locked on weighing accuracy as the sole key to precision reloading. If weighing to tight tolerances had produced ES/SD I want, I'd be saying so. What I like about the Gem Pro is I didn't pay $500+ to get me to where I personally feel comfortable eliminating weighing accuracy as a significant factor in my load development efforts. For those on the forum who have found that equipment throwing charges to 0.1gr or 1.0gr meets your needs with quicker/ cheaper equipment that represents the absolute best scale, it is great that you too are offering up your opinions on scales that might meet the OPs needs. If the thread has morphed from what is the absolute best scale, which I took to mean precision, to what accuracy tolerance is required for weighing powder charges, then I apologize if my comments tended to divert the thread.
