Scales for new loaders - Plan - B

Post by longtooth »

Stirrin through the stuff here the other day & found these 2 scales.
I used the 5-10 when I started. Redding came in a trade or buy of multiple stuff that I dont remember.
If you are starting to load & piecing it together like I did then I have these 2 & dont need them at all.
When I started loading again, after 9-11, I started with a home made tumbler, one of the RCBS presses I traded for & the 5-10 below. I got a set of measuring spoons for powder scoops & weighed every charge. Rifle & Pistol. Measured bullet seating depth by setting a ruler on top of 2 factory shells & seating the bullet until it would pass under the ruler. Slow but got the job done.
If you are starting & need a scale, claim one & it will be on the way.
Merry Christmas.


I traded for this one & used it for about a yr before getting new set up.
I like the pour spout on the pan on this one better than the Redding Pan w/ no spout. No original box. 10 grain graduations on the balance bar on the RCBS.

This one is gone.

I like the one tenth leaf calibration on the Redding better than the roller on the RCBS. I like the .1 over or under marks at the balance nose better than the plain on the RCBS. 5 grain graduations on the balance bar on the Redding. Have original box & paper instructions.

LT I could use the RCBS, if it's still available.
Ø resist

Take away the second first, and the first is gone in a second.
