Thread: electronic vs beam scales

I just use the RBCS 505 in combination with the RCBS powder thrower and a trickler. The powder thrower throws incredibly repeatable weights, so I set just to have the pointer on the 505 a couple of mm low and trickle the last half dozen or so sticks of ADI in. Takes about 10 secs a load. I bought an old kit for $250-$300 including the scales, thrower, press, measures, couple of sets of dies, case prep tools, lubing gear, ... the lot. I've never seen useful digital scales that wouldn't require a second mortgage.
