[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 612794, member: 1521"] I used a Sartorius to dial in my CM. This was a pain. While acculabs are super accurate, they're NOT good reloading scales. A fly farting in another room throws em all over the place! And since they never really settle out, you're constantly left wondering just what the weight really is.. The best reloading scales update quickly, and settle well on a bench, while being 'accurate enough'. More accurate is usually too accurate, and completely impractical.. What's best about a tweaked CM is that it IS completely practical. You can go manual thrower/trickler for the same result. You can box mount a super scale and attend every charge. But you don't have to anymore. Consider the ease of auto headlights once set to operate properly. It's seems a pain to mind the lights like this, after having used auto mode for a while. The problem with Hornady Joe is that Hornady did not earn it. They flat out reverse engineered the RCBS, colored their copy of it red, undermined RCBS pricing, and divided what they could from the market. This is unethical, it should not be rewarded, and it is very bad for us. Other product inventor/developers see this, and are forced to reconsider the viability in bringing new toys to market, even if greatly needed. Caldwell is another who should not be rewarded for undermining the innovators of several products(like Harris & Farley). It is on us to make the right choices -sometimes beyond simple cost. [/QUOTE]
