Looking for a new scale

[MT257]

I am looking at purchasing a new powder scale. I am looking for input on what everyone has experienced with their digital scale. I am wanting to upgrade since it seems as though either my my scale line is never directly center or just my eyes are giving in a little. Thanks.

What's your budget?

Don't need to break the bank. I was looking at rcbs, hornady, farkford Arsenal, etc. unless their is a leader I'm not aware of

It depends on how accurate you're looking to get. I'd recommend an A&D scale. I have the FX 300i and it's accurate down to the .02 gn. or .001 Grams

I just bought the Hornady Lock-n-Load Bench scale. Worked fine when I used it the first day. Used it again yesterday and it wouldn't show anything on the screen once powered up. Going back to Hornady tomorrow.

i am going to use a LITE to feed my a&d fx120i.
use it as is for less "needy" ammo

If you have the funds, the Chargemaster Lite is worth every penny and is so much more than "just" a very accurate scale. I tried other digital scales that were accurate but they went through batteries like crazy! Chargemaster probably paid for itself in battery savings alone.lol

I'm just curious about a scale not a powder dispenser/scale.

the problem is a great scale will cost as much if not more than a chargemaster lite.
spend once, cry once.

I had a GemPro250 for a while. Accurate to within .02 gr (about half a kernel of the slower powders). But....it died after 10 months. So I would never recommend one.
