scales decision

[greyspider56]

I'm trying to decide which scale to get. I know a lot of you use the A&D. Does anyone have the Creedmoor sports scale and if you do, are you satisfied with it? Right now I have the rcbs lite and will use it to throw a light charge and trickle to final weight

Thanks
Mike

120i A&D is well worth the money and can be up graded to work with V3, V4, ingenuity or Super Trickler in the future.

Buy the A&D FX120i

I bought the EJ-54D2 dual range for $375 shipped, on sale at Scales Galore.
I like it a lot. Now over $400.
Cal'd @ 10 grams (you pick the cal point) it is very repeatable.
It is NOT compatible with the V3 or V4.
I toss and pinch to my target.
Started off with two 1 gram check weights.
Then toss a charge, pinched down to target.
Sometimes I can get the measure to throw a little closer, sometimes not.

My very old Ohaus died a few years ago and I replaced with a non-frills simple Lyman Brass Smith balance.

I have been completely satisfied with it for the last couple of years. It holds zero and the accuracy is within the advertised + or - .1 grain throughout the range of charges I use (checked with calibration weights). I also trickle in the final charges.

I also have the A&D EJ-54D2, and I use it with a Dandy Trickler, to get it right exactly where I want the load.

The answer to your question is in part, what's your budget, and are you planning on adding the V3 or V4 auto-trickler stuff. If so, you'll need a compatible scale. If not, then maybe this scale and a Dancy Trickler (about $125) would work for you.
