I was getting some erratic readings on my RCBS electronic scale, with a variation of 0.5 grains or so of Winchester 748, which should meter very consistently. I had my scale on the same bench as my Dillon 650. My bench is pretty heavy and immobile, but the operation of the press causes some mild vibration in the table. I decided to move the scale to a seperate bench and see what happened.
It seems this eliminated most of the variation, and I am now getting about +/- 0.1 grains (sometimes 0.2g) variation. I guess the vibrations and movement of the bench with the operation of the press was causing the scale to be imprecise?
Has anyone else experienced this?
