Yall can’t help yourself.

Not gonna lie, in the long run, you've actually saved me a lot of time and money.

Thanks, lol.

I’ve plagiarized this line a time or 2.
I guess it’s one more nugget I owe you a thank you for.

I think first I need to upgrade from this unit.
80.7 is normally what it weighs my powder dish. But it keeps going from 80.7-80.8.
Not the end of the world and my groups and ES are still pretty dang good.
The Auto Trickler or the new Longshot that's coming out.

I have a Chargemaster and a Creedmore TRX. Drop to .1 short on the Chargemaster then finish on the TRX with a trickler. It satisfies my obsessive need to strive for perfection. Realistically I know this makes virtually no difference.

I watched the video below yesterday. The contribution of the SD in the scale you have versus a Autotrickler V4 on a FX scale to velocity SD is shockingly tiny. That said the precision makes me feel good.

anyone know if you can size up brass with just a mandrel (6.5 to 7) or do you need to run it through a full length die?
I might need to make 284 brass from 6.5-284 for a buddy.

Absolutely, a tapered mandrel makes it a smoother operation

No offense intended, but this sums up so much of what’s been discussed recently and is polar opposite to the spirit of this thread.

Same exact load, barrel length and have a can... my gun is abnormal it seems. It has sped up to 2799 fps Avg now. I cleaned it no pressure signs. Im not complaining. Used to be about 2760 fps gun. Have about 800 rounds on the barrel. Still shoots atleast an inch for 10 rounds.
