Digital powder dispencer scale combos

[newt]

Do any of you use a digital combo scale? Iam thinking about getting one. I was looking at the pact number three.

This might help. ht tp://www.6mmbr.com/powderdispensers01.html Haven't found a lot on the new Hornady thrower. Everyone seems to be backordered.

I have the RCBS 1500... I love it, it makes a chore much less of a chore

I bought the RCBS 1500 for under $300 in the US and it works fantastic.

I use the Chargemaster as well. It great for working up loads, 10 of this, 10 of that with the push of a few buttons. When it comes time for volume loading it's not real fast.

Another user of the Chargemaster.
Not fast but very exact.
I double check mine occasionally against a Dillon digital and so far its been 100% accurate.
Balance beam scales and powder dispenser and trickler dont see much use anymore.
None in fact.

Chargemaster works like a charm. I load about 5 cases, then start seating bullets. While it is dispensing a charge, i am seating a bullet. Concurent activity speeds things up.

I have been using the Pact combo for about 3 years now.It works good and I have no issues with it. You don't have to warm it up before using it, but you do have to recalibrate it if you change powders.It only takes about 2 minutes to do this, so it's not a big deal for me.

I'm using Lyman's first generation 1200 and if I was to do it again I'd look elsewhere. But over the years I have become used to the machine's foibles and have learned to compensate for them, and have developed a comfort level with it. A pal with the RCBS unit appears to have a better piece of gear.

Chargemaster is a great system when it works. I am recently sent one for repair that failed, and the new replacement they sent out was just as buggered.

I would like to know more about the new Hornady too, I saw it featured from the SHOT show.

i bought a lyman and so far my loads have been consistent and accurate

I had the chance to pick up a brand new Lyman 1200 III for a good price. It turned out to be a big mistake for me, anyway. Won't work under flourescent lights, continuously turns itself off, 30 minute warm up- just too many issues. Will return it and try the Chargemaster. I googled them both and the Chargemaster comes out on top in every way. Apparently the Lyman III dispenses faster than the older ones but it still has too many issues.

By the way, guys, they are both made in China!

I just bought an isd smartreloader combo. Will have in about ten days. Will let everybody know how it works.The price is about $100 less than the charge master.
