My problem is my 35 year old Lyman beam scale talks too much trash to me. The scale has the 5gr weight slider and the 1 gr weight slider with the 1/10ths hash marks...OK ?? IF you try to weigh say 34.5 gr , having the big slider set @30 gr and the small slider set @4.5 to make 34.5 gr total and them move the big slider to weigh 35 gr ...the weight actually only shows it moved 2/10s. This is hard to try to tell in print what is actually going on but the scale doesn't show the weight change the saME FROM TRYING TO WEIGH 35 GR FROM USING THE BIG SLIDER @ 30 AND THE LITTLE SLIDER @5 COMPARED TO JUST HAVING THE BIG SLIDER @ 35 GR. { woops, caps loc huh } Am I making any sence at all. I think I even confused myself.....
