Electronic powder dispensors and scales

I use an RCBS electronic charger. I also have a Harrel (? sp) thrower which I also use sometimes to throw the majority of the powder.

Then I use a set of medical tweezers and a jewelry scale which measures to +/- .05gr.

I know, it's gay, but WTF I got nuttin better to do.........

There are two types of people in the world: those that get things done and those who make excuses. There are no others.

Even absolutely, precisely matching powder charge weights (the kind that can only be measured accurately on a good balance beam scale) cannot guarantee velocity spreads of less than 15 fps from "all of my rifles". It is in the nature of many powders to produce much larger spreads than this regardless of how they are measured.

X 2!! You certainly have a way of flagging a point across.

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..
