I've been using the ealier version for 3 yrs. now & I'm very happy.DO NOT use the scale any where there is an open window or a fan on within 10'.Do allow the 15 mins. warm up,it really does make a difference'
Custom service is excellent.......Good luck with it!

I always wait for the complete beep after dispenseing cause the display seems to lock on your set weight till after the beep.  The the display updates and can be .2gr over your setting without alarming.   If its over by 0.4gr or more it asks for a calibration.  I see this when dispensing Varget because of the larger kernal size.  i either dump and whole pan back into the hopper or spoon out a few kernals

I would pinch some out and put it back in the hopper and use the trickle feature to get dead on

Yeah I ordered a lab spatula kit that has a tiny spoon.  Beats pinching all to hell.

I have the Hornady Press, Single and Auto, along with Scales etc. RCBS Trimmers, etc, etc.  I have not used the trimmer or the Hornady Elec. Powder thrower yet either .. I will take pics of this stuff as its set up on the benches. I really like the Hornady Press's
