digital scales out by 2 grains = friggin hopeless.....
beam scales dont change bugger all.... check zero,dial in your weight and go to it.... and you can trust them.
Ive got 2 powder throwers that are good to within a flyshit of a grain,constantly...but I usually use lee spoons and trickle up last half grain...its nearly as quick for 20 rounds,by time I dial up the thrower etc etc.

I am using Lee beams scales. Dumpers in these scales aren't very good., takes a while to settle, have to be very careful loading the pan as not to send the beam swinging wildly. I also find its easier to remove powder from digital scales if I over charge.
