Thread: Mechanical scale wont zero

SO I bought a scale as a replacment for my crappy lee set (dillon precision but ohaus built).

It wont zero, the scale just always rests on the bottom of the support. Everything is straight and I have tried on a level surface.

Has anyone had this issue? there are ball bearings under the powder pan that I assume are used to calibrate the scale from factory, am I going to screw things up by adding some extra ballast(thinking shotgun shot) until it will zero?

Cheers
