[QUOTE="Jack R Tishue Jr, post: 1597896, member: 109081"] If you already have the Lee scale, use it for a while. Nothing wrong with it. and you can load quickly with a beam scale. I use one to load and use the Lee Dippers, to drop the load in the scale, then using the dipper, dribble some to bring it up. The dippers will usually be within a grain if right one use. I USED to use a powder measure, but setting it up took so long 1/2 the time, I could load a box of ammo or two, meanwhile. Don't get an electronic. As others have noticed they are flaky. any sort of air movement throws them off. I loaded a box of ammo one day using one, then before putting the bullets in, dumped the loads into the beam scale and checked them. NONE were on. I can throw powder charges using a beam scale at a rate of about 1 a minute. And the beam scales so accurate use for BR loads. I may not know a lot though, only been reloading since 1959. [/QUOTE]
