    Found a very accurate node with 28g of W748 under a Nosler 40g Poly tip. I was seeing variances from a Hornady powder throw so I started hand measuring each load on an electronic scale.

    Now... After warm up and calibration... type in 28.0 and press enter... Voila, out comes 28.0 grains of W748.

    Brownells had/has them on sale for $199.99 w/ free s/h. http://www.brownells.com/reloading/...act-touch-screen-powder-system-prod59679.aspx

    Buy once, cry once, drive a beater, run better gear, ya my car needs some help too... yadda yadda yadda...

    I debated on getting the Lyman, but ended up getting the RCBS chargemaster. My fear was spending $200 on something and it not being the quality that I desired so I figured why not just buy the top priced powder measurer? Hope you enjoy your Lyman, they definitely speed up the reloading process.

    I've been very happy with my Lyman DPS III. It does take a half hour to warm up, but it is great after that.
