Which elecronic powder scale?
« on: March 17, 2007, 08:54:53 AM »
I'm considering an electronic powder scale and not sure which one.  The price of the Cabela's scale is tempting, but I would go with a little more expense if I get a better scale.  Any suggestions?

I went with a pact scale,first the bbk when they first came out then sold it and got the bigger one with the port thinking I would get the powder measure to go with it.It was so much faster than a balance beam scale that I never got the eletronic measure.I've been using it for seven years a few times a week without any problems so far.
Only reason I chose pact was that they make most of the scales the wear other brand names,and if I ever needed service could send it in to them.

I've always used a balance beam scale until I jumped in and bought a Lyman 1200, which is a electonic scale and powder despenser.  I think its the greatest thing since bottled beer.  ;D
