Which one is the BEST? And are there any detailed reviews out there?

(I know PRC will vote for 1, Gunsruss will vote for 2, and RKsimple will vote for 3??)

PS. Nay: can you PM me the discounts??

If you really want the "best" get a Denver Instrument scale! These are not measures, just scales.

Particularly I am looking for Lyman 1200 DPS 3 reviews and comparisons..... there are articles out for DPS 2.... which points leans towards RCBS CM1500..... but I'd like to see if DPS 3 can now compare....

That is what is on my work bench. I like it a lot. As you remember my loads are pretty on the money, you just gotta let it warm up first. The chargemaster is supposed it be the bees knees though.

Thats what I've read. I used one that belonged to a friend and it was great. Working with long grain extruded powders requires a little more finesse, but it still saves time.

i have a feeling, that the chargemaster is going to have the same performance as measuring the long grain extruded powders as the lyman. the new dps 3 should be as fast as the chargemaster or even faster. go with the lyman 3. best bet i think, plus it's cheaper then the chargemaster.

That may be. I'd like to see some solid reviews on the dps3. These eletronic sclaes/dispensers just seem to keep getting better.

from what I've read the rcbs unit is the way to go....I'm going to stick to my scale and mechanical dispenser though as its fast enough for me...

[Prc329]

I have used H335, IMR 4895 and N540 with mine. As long as I let the full 30min warm up go threw it has been very good. I verify so many with my 502 and they have been very solid.

+1 on both.
