    Two scales better than one……

    For cheapskates like me digital scales are affordable but have issues. They can lose zero fairly easily and wander around (the reading that is….) in certain conditions. When I lost my test weight (for calibration) I purchased a second Hornady digital scale and now I use them next to each other to double check. I find this better and faster than the Lee beam scale (I know there are better ones but that is what I have) and have been pleased with the results and consistent velocity. I weigh into one using a tea spoon to scoop close to 50gr and top up with the powder trickers and then transfer to the next one to double check. From memory they were about $90 each. Anyway it works for me and because I just hunt I can never justify an auto dispenser.
