[QUOTE="Winchester 69, post: 358376, member: 8037"] The bearings in my M5 (Ohaus) float in their retainers, and the beam has a lot of latitude forward and backward. It comes to rest on a piece of the scale body that tends to bring the pointer outward. It has the same tendency as yours with pistol (6 gr) measures. It tends to hold before releasing. I had thought that it was magnetic [i]stiction[/i] until I looked closer and saw that it was due to binding in the pivots. I can't say that you are experiencing the same thing as these are two different scales, but we do know that yours isn't caused by magnet. [/QUOTE]
