Im in the market for a new balance scale. Preference for all metal construction over made in US of A. Perfect scale would be both, must be new. Largest cartrige I load is 30-06. So 100 grains is pleanty.

The Hornady scale is made in USA, but appears to have a plastic body...

Rcbs looks plastic, but made in China...

Lee, ugh, nope. Had one, thru it out.

Know of one that im over looking?

My lyman has a plastic body and has crumbled in the extreme temps of an uncoditioned space.

I have a used Lyman that is metal. Not new, but works well. I have it adjusted to use the Lyman combo pan/funnel. PM me if interested, hc18flyer

Hornady scale is made of aluminum in the US. The Redding #2 Master Balance Beam Mechanical Powder Scale is made of steel in USA.

I have an older RCBS 10-10 that’s not new, but in good used condition.
$125 shipped in the lower 48. PayPal friends and family preferred.

I have an older RCBS 5-10 all metal I could spare. It has the same beam as the RCBS 10-10. PM me if you want more information.

I collect powder scales ... and I believe you would love an RCBS 304 Scale made by Oahus ....You would be ready for any caliber then...

Go to Ebay, type in "reloading scales Used" : Get you an Ohaus 505 or an RCBS 10-10 made by the same. A real Gem and the final say. Circa 1970's.
