[QUOTE="RegionRat, post: 2632015, member: 57231"] Nothing wrong with what you did. Higher performance cal check weights are expensive. Weights used to set the gain to calibrate electronic scales need to be pretty close to what they are labeled to be useful, but not the other ones. Another way to roll, is to use a very high class laboratory scale to just record your smaller weights as they are. While even the reference scale is imperfect, as long as this lab scale's uncertainly is well below your reloading scale's resolution, you are okay to just record the actual weights. For example, I bough cheap weights off of Amazon a few times to use for friends and as long as my lab reference scale was 0.1 milligrams uncertainty and the reloading scales only read to 6.5 milligrams, then just recording the weight is just as good as adjusting them off to a perfect interval.
