DennisFPact Digital dispensers
I was wondering if anyone with an older Pact (or RCBS) digital powder dispenser and scale had sent the dispenser back to have the high speed conversion done to it? Was the upgrade worth the cost? How much did it speed up the process? I am usually dumping 45 - 75 grains when I use mine.
Thanks

510wellsFor me it was worth every penny. Went from 20 - 30 seconds for 75 grain (actually 76 gr. RL15 for 270 gr. 375 H&H) loads to about 13 sec. Some times longer, some shorter. Seems it has to throw 2 to 4 test loads before it settles down though.
It IS quite a bit more "fussy" now to empty the powder out now as the baffle gets in the way. I empty most of the powder then remove the powder tube to get the remainder out rather than shaking the heck of the thing.
Hope this helps...

I love mine. It is fast and accurate. I will agree it may need a few throws to setlle down,..but after that, it cuts down load time significantly.
How expensive is the conversion?
