Hand weighing charges . . . .

There have been a few posts in this thread about possible error in scales -- drifting for the electronic ones, and so forth.

One tip-- use one of your own bullets to check your scale. For example, weigh a 55 grain .224 bullet. If you are right on the 55 mark of your scale, you know your scale is generally accurate. If you are a tenth off or so, could be a manufacturing variance, but you at least know your scale is generally right.
 
Most scales come with check weights. I use them on the electronic and beam measures.
