[QUOTE="Mc Fraser, post: 1872936, member: 106529"] I had mine in conjunction with FX 120i and it can be quite off sometime, as high as 0.9 grain without noticing. What I mean by that? Let’s say you want to throw 55.5gr the scale can be off anywhere between 55 to 56 without getting the message that you are over or under. That being said based on your requirements I believe the RCBS will serve you well and you can help derisk your operations if you stay away from hot loads. My advice: - find a velocity node to compensate for the high tolerance the scale presents - stay away from hot loads or if you must use a beam scale to verify - follow RCBS manual and properly warm up the unit, and operate it. Be aware of the enviromental challenges and how to mitigate them. - verify your loads with a beam scale. I used to check 25% of my loads but each to its own. There where times when I would dump with RCBS verifying with beam and fx 120i for every load during load development. I hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
