I am sorry that the above scale does not meet your price requirements, but if you are looking for a reloading scale to measure powder with- you will find no EQUAL unless you spend at least $80 or more.
This scale will slap many other scales off the table unless they hit a price of over $100. I gave up trying to understand why reloading scales cost so much more and are not as accurate, and then this scale somehow pushed my previous digital scale off the bench...

But what features are you looking for? Other users here have the heavier version of this scale, I think it does like 50 Grams, but it is not the same price.

I have used the above scale now for 2.5+ years. I have replaced the batteries (2 AAA) 2 times. It gives me accurate readings underneath a flourescent light mounted directly over my reloading bench.
It is a popular scale to use whenever we have reloading clinics at my house.
It is backlit in BLUE.
It is accurate to MILLIGRAMS or .00 grains and displays/counts in .02 grains (.02, .04, .06, .08, .00).
It has a measuring tad with a ring depressed in it and it seems to fit 45/44 shells PERFECTLY. (like it was secretly MADE for reloading).
If it ever breaks I will weep softly, and then buy another immediately.

I use this and if I ever have any doubts, I pull out my 5-0-5 to check it, but I have had the 5-0-5 benched for the past 14 months...

OH, here is the larger one, but I have not used it.

Sorry I could not be of any more help...

I use the Jennings Mack 20 scale and have been very happy with it. It is accurate and comes with a 20 year warranty and they will ship it back within two working days if it needs repair or replacement. That's pretty hard to beat in my opinion.

I love that website. I spent 3 hours there once and never found a reloading scale cheaper than $200...

And your 20 year warranty beats my 10 year...

Been using this scale for about a year and a half. Been doing just fine for me.

Hey Stilly, does the scale you mentioned above have an auto shut off feature after like 60 sec or so?

That would suck. How could you warm it up for hours first? Auto shut offs are a bad idea.

Yes it would.. Exactly why i was asking, the Hornady gs-1500(i think that's the model number) has that feature and it gets frustrating because it keeps turning off...

^^^ This. x 1,000,000,000.

I have used probably 8 different scales ... 4 beam ... and 4 electronic. The GemPro 250 is hands down the best bang for your buck. My standard deviations on velocity testing of 308, 223, and 7mmMag are in the single digits with this scale.

I use a Dillon scale. It has not failed me.

I have the Dillon scale with the AC adapter. Been using it for years.

You can spend as much as you want, but nothing beats a Gemini 20 for $20. We have several analyticals at work that cost around $1,700.
