    The other awesome thing with the balance beam is , if your like me you get the last 2 digits of your number round the wrong way like I occasionally do, you'll notice straight away when the scales drop down hard with an extra grain of powder in em.
    I've got both. And for my long range loads throw a charge just under and trickle up on the digital scales then pop the charge onto the beam scales. Let it settle while I get the next one ready. I think of it as a double check and a bit of fine tuning. The scales are sensitive enough that one or two kernels of 2213 will upset it.
    Probably a bit overkill but I'm only doing that for the long range load.
    I don't think it adds any time and it puts my mind at ease.
    The bush gun gets the digital scales only and the thrown charge trickled up with a few checks on the beam scales to double check myself as I go.
