    Exclamation Weighing bullets


    What's the best scale to use for weighing bullets?

    Thanks, Dennis

    This is the one I use for trickling powder, and weighing cases/bullets. It seems to be quite sensitive and precise. And it is generally cheaper than the stuff midway or any other gun site sells.

    Does that scale also weigh in grains?

    Yes, it weighs in grains to the .01 which is plenty accurate for me.

    Beam scales!!!! They can't be beat for consistency. Even the most expensive electronics can't beat them for that.

    I use three different scales, one digital , which is used to double check the Lee and RCBS scales I use. Both the Lee and RCBS measure down to the .1 grain and they are aways right on. So, you don't need to spend a ton of money to get an accurate scale. If you can go to a store that has them, try them all and see which on feels better to you to use as they are normally different in their measurment movements.
