Getting ready to buy a scale, just curious how accurate the load charge needs to be, I see all kinds of different reviews for scales and was wondering if a load was off a few grains how much would it effect that load? Most likely loading the big 20 xl turkey load.
Hal recommended a cheap Hornady and I trust his suggestions, but have seen mixed reviews about many scales.
Thanks

Re: Digital scales?
Weights can effect your pressure and FPS. I try to keep my loads with in a .5 grain +/-. I just have the digital scale from Ballistic Products.

I guess this is a newer model I have the previous one.

Roll with it. If you stay above 55 the wheel wont fall off.

Re: Digital scales?
Not a product review but my Ballistics Elite digital scale crapped out on day 2. Worked fine day 1. Day 2.... it would drift 2 to 8 grains without adding anything to the weigh pan and took much longer to zero & calibrate. Mine is trash fodder now.
Replacement with a $150 Dillon D-Terminator fixed my issue.
