So I have just deposited my second electronic scale item into the bin. A few months ago I chucked a powder dispenser and today a set of electronic scales, so circa $600 worth of kit, both green in colour and made in Fu#$ing China. Lesson learned. Admittedly they are 4 years old however I'd have thought I'd get a bit more longevity out of them than that. I had previously given these items a good wrap on this forum as they did actually perform really well up until recently.

This combo got me 0.261 MOA group at 500m a few weeks back, and I use a Lee Hand press

But if she's been on for some time, AFAIK she's consistent. I have Queens gongs to back it up. Worth noting (with the flow restrictor permanently installed) my Gen6 throws 0.1gr under approx 50% of all throws, with the occasional 0.1gr over (which I just tip back in), making my extreme spread <0.2gr.
These days I don't split hairs over such variance. It seems absolutely fine for TR and even SH (SH is basically light F-class but with TR scoring). However F-class, with their 1moa bulleye 6 and 1/2moa 'X' decimal, is a different story.... those boyz go to great lengths to craft the most precise ammo... glad I don't have that pressure to make such anal ammo.
TBH JimTom replacing the Gen6 with the RCBS CM, if the need ever arose, was a serious consideration for me... i was under the impression the RCBS CM was the "creme-de-le-creme" in the digi realm. Sounds like this mightn't be such a bright idea....

I'm guessing that's US $ 93 + $13 postage.
