[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 1106546, member: 307"] Hopefully, I will never have to go back to a mechanical scale for my reloading. I have included a file for reprogramming the ChargeMaster1500. I would suggest you write your current settings down while you're in there, just in case you make a boo-boo. Between these instructions and the straw, the CM takes on a whole 'nother personality. I also included a pic of my current setup. The Omega works great in concert with the high precision (0.001gn) Mettler Toledo AB104-S, but these balances cost more than most folks want to invest in their reloading hobby. I always imagined folks that were in to National competition having a setup like this, but I think a lot of them use a powder thrower! That's something to ponder :) I run 2.0gn less than desired on the ChargeMaster, transfer the charge to the Mettler and use the high speed trickle then low speed to get my desired charge. With this method it is possible to get consistent charges that run +/- .004gn. This (+/- .004gn) is my tolerance too. After all is said and done, a lot of rifles and shooters probably can't shoot the difference between +/- .4gn, much less .004gn (me included), but I like to think it helps me. Consistency and confidence go a long way in this game. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
