    I wondered too about my scales so,
    Zeroed them first, measured (say 40 gr of) powder until the arm balanced in correct spot. Then I took my small electronic scales and used a cube like container on top. Those electronic ones self zeroed, so I poured the powder into the cube.

    I did initially try gently tipping powder straight onto the electronic platform, but some split over the side. Once several rounds were loaded, I stood powdered case, one by one on the electronic scales. The range was insignificant, so pressed home the projectile. Next step is to chrony a few.

    I know it seems pedantic, but it sure beats doing housework.
