    I have the same as PJC. Works OK for me. I used to double check it with my beam ballance but now I'm just repeating the same load each time i don't bother getting the beam scale out.
    The little Hornady electronic scale dose drift a little and can take a few seconds to move up that last 1/10 of a grain. Don't want to rush it or you may go over.
    I sort of figure it's about consistently doing it the same. Better to wait and see if it's going to drift up that last 1/10 grain to get to my target number than race up to my target and then see it go over.
    Would be frustrating if you are doing lot of loads but then I would just set my powder throw and just check say every 5th lot on the scale.
