Yeah mine does that too but it stays consistent so I just subtract the tenth. Cant expect better for 30 bucks I guess. One of these days I'd like to get a nicer scale. Just not ready to shell out 200 when I can just subtract.
My experience with this scale is disappointing. It worked fine for checking powder measure drops for a few reloading sessions. Then began to display variations of 2 to 3 grains with the charge sitting on the scale. I change batteries and recalibrated many times. It can no longer be depended on to measure accurately.
well 3 scales did the same exact thing then would it have have been possible your weights are off?And when u do get a new scale do a video please of it showing those same calibration weights you used to see if the new scale is on. That way we can rule out your weights being wrong.
No I am not a precision shooter. You are right for the most part. Freehand shooting you would not really see a difference. I do however hunt and some of my loads are right at the top end of the charge and 0.1 of a grain could possibly be the difference in a Kavoom and not.
@@adamvancamp327 if .1 of a grain means anything in ur charge then you need stop all reloading and start from the beginning with reloading 101 and read the reloading manuals don’t just skip to the reloading part of it

If you let it warm up first it helps. Make sure table is level. High humidity can affect scale to

Yeah I didn't really think about hunting.. Haha I just bought this scale but it should do plenty good enough for me
Maybe you should place it on a good flat surface. Might help with accuracy?
This was placed on my reloading bench that is level and very stable. I sent it back and got my money back.
Muito obrigado agora consegui calibrar minha balança

I checked the weights on 2 different RCBS scales. The 505 and M500. Both scales zero out with each weight.
I don't know that seems like it may be a problem from your weights
Are you a precision bench shooter or something... becauss you will never notice a tenth or two of a grain freehand shooting

Mine I put the batteries in and it just flashes.
Well, if you want 200 to 500 dollar accuracy results, 30 bucks aint going to get u that. I personally like mine.
