Creedmoor Sports ".01gr." Scale...Strain Gage

[Ernest T]

Has anyone seen what type of measuring device this scale uses? Is it a strain gauge or balance scale?

Ammo with charge weight measured to .1 gn that is in tune with the rifle will always shoot better than ammo with charge weight measured to .01 that isn't in tune.

Theoretically. Just like theoretically the lowest ES and SD should yield more consistent groups, not always the case. I still haven't seen anyone prove that level of powder measurement shows up on target.

This is a strain gauge scale with .01 grain resolution,

It depends on the distance but as an example at 500 yards .01 won’t show on paper but .1 will show up.
I’ve recently bought this scale to replace an older unit, I’m pretty impressed with the performance and have no problem loading 1000 yard Benchrest ammunition on it.

Shoot well shoot small..

SPJ, is the Creedmoor scale as sensitive to air movement as the A&D120i?

I’ve not tried the 120 but this one isn’t too bad,
I used it open top with a dandy trickler and had no issues.
