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

[6bra1k]

@6bra1k I thought that remaining calm and not shouting were signs of a GOOD bench rest shooter. How did all these shooters get on when we only had .1 resolution with a beam scale.

go back and look...look at today's records( LONG RANGE BR)
bart has a .311 600 yards group, 1k has under 3" and 100/10x
THIS IS A FORUM, not a match

That 1k 100/10X was almost a 100/9X.

i hate to break the news..its been proven by long range BENCH REST SHOOTERS. ITS WHY WE DO IT.

what are you referring to ?

 

[6bra1k]

That 1k 100/10X was almost a 100/9X.

but it is in the record books as a 100 10xunder 3"...two records( group and score.
gonna be tuff to beat
and it was a 300 wsm...with win brass !

i hope everyone notices the actual words...yes for long range br, probably not for f class and below.
as a reference point the f class 10 ring has SEVEN times more area than a br target...1k.

 

[Rocketvapor]

and both the BR 10 ring and the F-Class 10 ring have 4 corners

nope...br has a box,,but it is not the 10ring

As promised...

So, how fast does it settle……both when setting a pan full of powder ~65gr and after trickling a few kernels?

Forgot to mention….I have an appointment there tomorrow to try to understand this.

What is the question? I’m going to Creedmoor Sports to see this before I buy. Not sure I need it, but it seems like a good intermediate step before I consider the V4.

If I can dump, weigh, trickle in 20-30sec, I’ll be happy. I think weight will need to settle under 5s.

Gotcha! The way you had it worded, I thought maybe you were going to a Shrink to figure it out. lol!

Well, that is probably how I should be spending my money!

Ordered the TRX-925 based on overall good reports in various forums, UR review and then F-Class John's review sealed the deal for me. While I'm not a competition shooter, I am interested in improving my results and after paying close attention to my current Frankford Arsenal scale, I can easily recognize where the deficiencies are. I currently use a manual powder trickler and don't mind the time involved, so using something like a V4 with a FX-120i are not only more than what I want to spend, but they really aren't needed either. I could use that money savings to buy more components and thereby have more practice time at the range.

@F Class John
Just wanted to give you a big thank you for taking the time to put together videos and reviews. You obviously have a lot going on and I can appreciate the time you invest to share info with others. Like I said earlier, while I'm not a competition shooter, I am interested in precision shooting. So, I really appreciate your unbiased and simple explanation of things you do. I like that you don't come off like you're trying to sell people stuff, instead just give an honest opinion along with your likes/dislikes about the products or methods.

Thank you and I’m just glad something I did was able to help you.

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

 

[VA_XTC_Shooter]

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.

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