[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 1504277, member: 34065"] Ok I just checked it. Turned it on for 1 minute then put a 180 grain bullet in pan. It weighed 180.1 and after 30 minutes it weighed 179.3 so it drifted .8 grains, pretty darn significant. After an hour it weighed 179 gr. So the drift was 1.1 grains. I’ll definitely let it warm up for a while from here out and get a wall thermometer while paying close attention to the temperature. I’m also going to get a Trip Lite isobar surge protector and a Fair Rite RC-2 ferrite choke as seen here for my Chargemaster [URL]https://www.oldwillknottscales.com/fair-rite-rct-2-ferrite-bead.html[/URL] Hopefully tighten things up from here out, especially while double checking and trickling on the beam scale.
