[QUOTE="Mike6158, post: 334040, member: 1039"] LOL... I wonder how many bucks I have in reloading period... I think I have every die Sinclair makes and half of the bullets Sierra makes (not really but **** I'm running out of room!). But I enjoy it. I just loaded 60 rounds of .223. Two different bullets. Two different charge weights. I used a Harrell powder measure and my RCBS beam scales... I checked the first 10 drops and they were dead on. I checked every tenth after that and they were dead on. They are hunting loads for 200yds. and under so even if they were off a tenth they'll be fine since I'm not at max. I really don't think digital scales of any form are faster than the method I mentioned above. Even when the two digitals that I had were working fine I didn't pull them out much after I bought the Harrell. Lately I find myself doing ladder testing (just found out that's what it's called. Go figure) so I load 6 of 3 or 4 different combination's. Sometimes a different bullet. Sometimes a different powder. Sometimes a seating depth test. It's easier to drop with the Harrell, weigh with the beam scale, correct with a teaspoon, and dump by hand. And I think equally fast though I think fast and rifle bullet reloading don't go together.
