Beam scale for small charges

[264win]

Looking for recommendations on a non electric scale that is accurate on small weights ( 2 grains ). My 505 has been great for larger weights but seems to struggle with 1-2 g charges.

Strangely enough the cheap Lee balance beam measures small charges well enough.

As a child when I started reloading my dad had me measured every charge when loading for a .32 pistol.

When batching airrifle pellets by weight, the balance showed itself to be very consistent.

It could have a static build up. Search static discharging a powder scale.

Look for an older 10-0-5 or M5 model on eBay. Great, consistent scales.

Avoid the 10-10 models

Spot on advice, I have an old M5 as a backup to my digital scales and that thing is spot on and it’s very sensitive. You‘ll be surprised and very happy with one.
