[QUOTE="TracySes23, post: 1520662, member: 52763"] For myself.... I'll pass on these electronic powder dispensers unless they read in .01 grains. If they only read in .1 grains, it's possible to have a variation of .18 grains from one load to another. Since I'm too old to be walking any distance at all and because of a knee with the cartilage nearly gone and a hip with arthritis. Bench rest is about all I'm good for anymore. So.... I wouldn't spend the money on something that could possibly have load variations of nearly .2 grain variations. I prefer to have my loads as near perfect as possible & I have the time to do it. If it read in .01 grains the accuracy I prefer would probably be there. However, there's something else I've noticed with electronic scales. They don't seem hold their zero. Calibrating them after turning them on & using a weight standard both of the ones I have always seem to lose their zero after 10 minutes or so. I don't use mine for anything but weighing brass cases and/or bullets. [/QUOTE]
