[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1123295, member: 39764"] I practice the 'other stuff' as well. Reason I stated that was because I did it real time on my range across 3 different sticks of the same caliber, 2 sending Bergers and 1 sending Sierra's I found that charge inconsistencies cause spread inconsisties across all 3 rifles. The Bergers were the worst I might add. The Sierra rifle was the most forgiving but then the BC of a Sierra is quite a bit different than a comparable Berger VLD. Not too concerned with actual charge weight amount but more concerned that the charges are uniform across a number of loaded cartridges. The Omega does that very well becuse it entirely eliminates the human factor (of twizzling the trickler knob while intently watching the scale pointer). I throw a grain or so less than my set amount and let the Omega do the rest.... and it's fun to watch the pointer ever soi slowly rise to the reference line and shut off, time after time. I never was much good at playing a pinao. I've always had trouble getting my right hand to do one thing while my left (or my eyes for that matter) are doing something else. Because I load hangun loads too, those small charges are ideal for the Omega to just dump in the scale pan and forego my Harrell entirely. Not an obsession at all, just for me (at least) an easier way of reloading. [/QUOTE]
