[QUOTE="catorres1, post: 1097297, member: 80699"] I recently bought a chargemaster combo and had to return the first, but still have a few days to decide whether to keep the second. Using h4350, the majority, I'd say large majority, of my throws are over, usually by .1 grains, sometimes .2. The scale, when checked with my gempro, is accurate, that's not the problem. It just seems to get down to the last bit, and usually then over throws by a tenth or two, which it indicates. Again, it's not a scale problem, that's been really accurate so far, its the trickler. I have the straw put in place, have carefully leveled it etc. So my question to you all is, with h4350, or maybe with other extruded powders as well, what kind of throw accuracy do you expect from this machine? I have been throwing a load, then while it throws the next, been weighing it on the gempro to bring it within a tenth or better of my target load. It's still fast compared to what I was doing before, which is throwing somewhat close with an RCBS dump, and then trickling up (the gempro is terribly slow). But for the $270, not sure this is worth it for me.. Another option is to add an omega trickler...ie use the cmaster to get close, then finish the job on the gempro with the omega. But I was really hoping for a faster solution overall with sufficient accuracy, and that kind of makes the cmaster a really expensive scoop system. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
