[QUOTE="Stammster, post: 2212381, member: 114381"] Call me cheap, but this is what works for me... Throw charge with calibrated RCBS Chargemaster. With a resolution of 0.1gr, it usually throws within 0.15gr of target. Move pan to this “tare”d electronic scale from Amazon ($16). [URL]https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07X1R442K?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title[/URL] Add/remove a few kernels as required. It has a 0.02gr resolution. Each grain of powder is between 0.02 and 0.04gr, depending on the type. This scale reads accurately enough to know when I drop or remove a single kernel. I use a .223 55 gr bullet that I know is exactly 55.00gr to verify scale calibration, as most of the loads I throw are 51-60 gr. This is what I use for load development. For hunting loads, I just use the Chargemaster and weigh every 5-6 throws on “el cheapo” to make sure the RCBS hasn’t walked. [/QUOTE]
