Show it on the Antique Reloading Tool Collector’s website; those guys will fill you in. I think there was an article on that scale in one of the ARTCA Journals. IIRC, it was the first model powder scale that RCBS offered.
That is interesting.

I had one very similar to it. The one I had appears to be identical, except mine read weights in grams, as opposed to grains. (Simple for me, I just calculated grains to grams -- easy-peazy, it worked... until I upgraded to a "better" scales (a Dial-a-Grain) which read weight in grains). Both of these were manufactured by Ohaus Scale Company. If you Google Ohaus, you may very well find your scales, but with the Ohaus name in it -- and, their user guide.

Ooooh what a find. That is an ultra rare scale - One offered on a well know auction sight a few years ago for $1,000.
It's thought that as few as 50 of these scales were ever sold.
Here's my post from 3 years ago about this scale:

Thats an interesting old scale! Thanks for the pictures.
I like it. Very nice looking scale.

There is no problem so great, that it cannot be solved by the proper application of high explosives.
Never seen one of those before - looks very interesting.
Just was accepted to the the Antique Reloading Tool Collector’s website. Will post the question there as soon as I can.
Cheers, Richard
