[QUOTE="barefooter56, post: 1037711, member: 85389"] hhowe, Canadian Bushman made a good suggestion. Gem Pro scales are pretty good. (And it is +/ - .1 not .01 sorry). Do you mean re-zero ? Or do you have to go through the re-calibration process frequently and not just 1 time before using the scale? Have you checked the accuracy with a set of the RCBS scale check weights? (RCBS part #s 98990 or 98992) To confirm the scale is "off"? Try plugging the scale in and turning it on and leaving it on overnight. Electronics like to work in a certain heat range . Especially electronic scales. Calibrate the scale per the instructions and check the accuracy with the scale check weights . (The weights supplied WITH THE SCALE ARE CALIBRATION WEIGHTS ONLY). You may also want to cut one end out of a box that is large enough for you to reach in and out of comfortably and cover the scale with it to use as a wind break. Make sure the scale is plugged into an electronic strip that has the capability of leveling out voltage spikes like are used with computers and don't use a cell or electronic phone in the room or a fan.
