Buy RCBS instead

This product is not accurate above 65F This is the second one. The first got sent back as it would start scolling on weight. I checked rounds Id made anywhere from -1gr to +5gr in 50 test loads. Hornady said they couldnt replicate it. New one arrived it worked ok, then it started doing the same. After alot of research the load cells that make it work are temperature sensitive. I tested this theory. Yep its only accurate when its below 65F in my garage. Thats hard to do in TX even with a window ac unit in the garage. Its a great concept but not executed well. I should have listened to the bench rest shooters that said buy RCBS.
