Digital or triple beam?

[Guest]

Wich scale will give the most accuracy and consistancy?

For accuracy, I would say a balance beam.

For ease of use, digital.

Whatever you get, get some check weights.

Balance beam in my opinion is the only way to go for consistency and accuracy. As POP said the digital is easier to use.

Accuracy is more important to me than ease. I want to know that if my groups are unsatisfactory, its the gun or me, not the ammo. Eliminate as many variables as possible.

Digitals can be finicky. I had an rcbs and it didn't respond to trickeled powder.
The balance beam never lies and you can see the beam move with every kernel of powder that is trickled. That helps to lower your standard deviation wich basicly means more consistant loads and tighter groups.

Look at RCBS COMBO power measure/scale and use a beam scale to check it every once in a while. I am finding its accuracy to be exceptional.
It is easy and quick as well.
