I am looking to upgrade my Lee beam scale to something easier to use but most importantly looking for accuracy for my rifle loads. Thinking about either the RCBS 505 or the Redding #2. What are your thoughts on this?
Dillon Elliminator and RCBS 5-0-5/10-10 scales are all made by Ohaus and have the agate stone bearings. Even my older Ohaus 10-10 stones look pristine and I can't tell apart from the newer RCBS 5-0-5 stones - http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=8435086#post8435086Walkalong said:The Redding has the V for the beam knife edges cut into the aluminum base. If it ever wears, you are out of luck. The RCBS has agate "bearings", and those could be replaced if they ever wore out.
My newer RCBS 5-0-5 base is still stamped "Made in USA" ... has anyone seen "Made in Mexico" 5-0-5?upstech76 said:RCBS 505 ... scales will be stamped either Made in New Jersey or Made in Mexico under the base.
