    Brian Enos digital scale?

    Anyone use this?



    Brian seems to think it is top notch.

    I was considering the Dillon D Terminator, which is the same price.

    Just looking for something accurate as a complement to my beam scale and don't want to buy junk.

    Another option is the Mack 20 available at http://www.oldwillknottscales.com/je...e-mack-20.html

    This has resolution of .002 grams vs .01 grams for the scale you are looking at.

      I use the Brian Enos scale to check my Dillon Eliminator's accuracy. It does pretty good, actually. I got it for free with an XL650 purchase, so for a "freebie", I can't complain.

        When I was researching scales I was told to stay away from the Dillon scale. Forgot why,

          I don't know why. The Dillon Eliminator is just an Ohaus 505 scale that's painted blue. It only has about 4-5 decades of pedigree behind it. I learned to reload on an Ohaus 505, and the eliminator is what I use today.

            My Mack 20 is on it's 2nd trip back for repair in 6 months. First it wouldn't stabilize and continued to climb higher and higher the longer it was on, and now it takes forever to reach the correct weight. I end up using the little Hornady digital that came with my single stage press.

            Plus don't spill any powder in it or it gets under the pan plate. Plus expect to have to buy a trickler that's tall and has a extended spout.

              I bought one from Old Will Knotts as well. After I spent more than it cost on shipping back and forth to the mfg to get it "repaired" I finally gave up.

              The good news is I have scrapped much more expensive digitals. Now when I read about someone with a super reliable digital scale, I just assume either they don't own any check weights or they really don't care what the actual weight is... call me jaded, but for me it is the reliable old RCBS 1010 from now on.

                I use the Enos scale and love it. Not to mention a lifetime warranty backed by Brian Enos.
