[QUOTE="Koda_, post: 2956643, member: 121268"] Your on the right path but a bullet wont tell you if the tare is drifting since bullet weighs are not consistent. You could set aside one bullet for the task though but that needs to be clarified to suggest this. I just tare off the powder dish myself. In my experience the tare reading doesn't tell you if the scale is drifting as it drifts under load. Measure the same powder weight 3 or more times and if you get different readings then you cant rely on the scale. there's no need to fix a beam balance once you zero it (tare) unless you move it on its surface, there is nothing to break on a beam scale.
