[QUOTE="Susquatch, post: 1580209, member: 31264"] In my opinion, no. I must have a dozen or so. None of them can be trusted. I really really really want one that does work. I even bought one VERY EXPENSIVE Laboratory grade scale supposedly accurate to a tenth of a tenth (0.01gr). It "looks awesome" and seeing that second decimal makes one "believe" that it's great, but it was no different than the rest. None of them I have ever tried can be trusted. I have an OHaus laboratory grade balance beam that is always bang on. I have used it to test my other scales. The only scales that work are the balance beam scales. I personally use a Redding Powder Balance Beam Powder Scale but am constantly on the look out for something better because I am old and getting the weights in the right groove on the beam isn't as easy for me as I'd like it to be. As long as the scale range is sufficient for your heaviest and lightest loads at 0.1gr resolution, any balance beam type scale will work (rcbs, Lyman, redding, Hornady, etc) [/QUOTE]
