I know its hard to think in this day and age that everything is better if its electronic, while there are very good electronic scales, few are within the price range of an average consumer, and a simple mechanical balance beam scale that has been tuned\calibrated will last more than a couple lifetimes, and be more than accurate for this sport\hobby. If I didn't have a Gen 2 Prometheus I would be using a tuned Lyman M5 from Scott Parker, a USB camera hooked to my laptop to view the needle, Uniflo powder throw, and a Omega trickler.
