Ingenuity Powder System

That was in reference to my post and video about my A&D.. I didnt discuss Sartarius particulars with Paul because I dont have one. So maybe it is also 0.02gr, you'll have to check with him

The MAIN reason people buy the Sartarius is because of its much faster response time vs a A&D Fx...

0.02 doesn't show up downrange, you'll be alright

So a Sartorius scale is a waste of time and money because the electronics only have +/-0.02g resolution? Wish I’d have known that before buying a Sartorius…

I’d say yea

 

[padom]

I’d say yea

I would as well. Proper load development and your 0.02 difference doesn't matter. Neither does 0.1...

In any case the spread is 4/100ths of a grain................shooter error is a much bigger problem

It's a tad bit faster than the A&D and supposedly less inclined to drift (although I have seen no drift on my A&D) but for me, it's not worth the additional cost.

And a single kernel of the popular powders we are using weighs 0.02gr.... so I dont know why I would need to weigh less than that...

If you really want to dig down on the spec sheets the sartorius has lower hysteresis as well, but who knows if you can actually shoot that difference between the sartorius and the A&D.

I'm not convinced you could actually measure and prove the difference on the target or chronograph between the sartorius and a&d with any confidence given all the other reloading process variables in play, but the sartorius does provide peace of mind that your charge weight is being very tightly controlled and that's worth the extra cost for some people. If the sartorius responds faster and can shave off the time per charge, that might be a more compelling reason to spend the extra money.

Current A&D user myself, but I'd spend the extra bucks on the sartorius if I thought it would provide any appreciable gains in the overall process.

Cut it in half

Retumbo averages 0.04, and I think folks using N570 say it's around 0.06, so even less importance to weigh less than 0.02.

I have been known to pick out a kernel based on its length when correcting an overthrow just to make the scale read my exact charge weight.

The v3 adapter is pretty nice. The controller is a nice upgrade as well

How much is the controller?

N570 looks like rat shit. It's huge. Makes my 7PRC happy though.
