[QUOTE="2400, post: 134938, member: 3254"] When I load I use the scale to set my load weight not the measure. I've been using my RCBS powder measure for about 45 years now and I never rely on an indicated 50 gr on the measure being 50 gr on the scale. I dial in 50 gr and check and adjust the measure until it throws 50 every time. (I used 50 gr as an example) How does it smell? LMAO, See it isn't always what you think. One thing I've learned in loading is always check and double check when you think you have a problem. When I have one that stumps me sometimes I have a buddy come over and check what I doing. A fresh set of eyes is invaluable in problem solving. Loading is NOT a place for "close enough" as you know. I noticed you didn't mention what 7mm you're loading for. That wouldn't have helped get the measure set but might find you someone else's favorite load. bullet or powder for what you're shooting. Please report back on how it's shooting now. [/QUOTE]
