Reloading scale recommendations-
Hello all,
I currently use a Hornady G2 1500 pockets scale that I’ve had since 2016. In the past year or so, I’ve noticed it begin to have issues with creep (.1-.3grains) and lag when trickling powder. I use it for both pistol and 30-06 target loads, and feel its lack of precision is contributing to SD’s higher than I’d like, even with dutiful case prep on my end.
What would be a good, tested, quality scale that is accurate for trickling, as well as just weighing charges outright? Would like to keep the overall cost under $175 if possible. A trickle feature would be nice, but is not required. Open to beam scale options as well if they offer a significant accuracy advantage over a digital.
Thanks!
