So I dug out all my reloading stuff that has been stored since 2004. I only used it to load a few hundred 357. That was it.
So now I'm all most ready to start loading .223. I'm waiting on my powder measure insert to get here.
To the point.
I have an old Hornady/Pacific scale. It has literately only been used for those few hundred round's. I'm assuming it's as accurate now as when I put it away,, took apart in the box. From what I've read, this is a descent little scale. I'm low budget, and definitely don't have the cash for an expensive digital scale.
What I'm worried about is the accuracy of this scale. Do you guy's think I'll be all right to trust it with out calibrating it. My powder insert should be here tomorrow, and I'll be ready to load..... Hopefully.... Getting set up is teaching me patience. But I'm smart enough to know not to rush something that can get you hurt.
I'm wanting to go ahead and get some calibration weight's, but that might take a payday or two so I can catch up on money. Here's a set of weight's I could go ahead and get now if you guy's think they are GTG. Anyone tried these. Or I could wait and get something better if need be. What would you recommend for the economically challanged.
Calibration Weight's
Here's a pic of my new, old scale. In your opinion's, this should serve me well. Right??
