[QUOTE="Huntnful, post: 2787611, member: 116563"] I just got an FX120i and don't really know how I feel about it honestly. I verified quite a few charge weights that I had thrown from my .1 powder thrower. They were all within .03-.04gr. So a .8% maximum deviation on a 60gr. charge and .5% maximum deviation on a 90gr. charge. So for the 30 cal 90gr. charge, that has the potential for a 1" vertical deviation at 1000 yards based off 198" of drop and 2.75" deviation at 1500 yards based off 546" of drop. I think I'll still weight my long range hunting loads to the .01 but wont waste my time on much other stuff. [/QUOTE]
