My Lyman dps 1200 just took a dump on me lastnight after using it one other time last weekend! I'm taking a Rifles Only course starting the 29th and I supposed to have at least 500rds and I have a WOPPING 20! WOO HOO I SCREWED! there is a basspro and a sportsmans warehouse not too far from me. Any suggestions on what I might be able to get there ge next day mailed from somewhere else?

Re: Huge bind! Need new scale ASAP!

If you were in SoCal I would offer you to use my ChargeMaster 1500. Try to find someone in your area with a CM1500, and use it to load your ammo. Otherwise, you can see who has one in stock and is willing to overnight.
 
Re: Huge bind! Need new scale ASAP!

Do you not have a backup beam scale and powder measure to use? Reason I ask, I can't imagine using the DPS to load 500 rounds of ammo.

I'm going to bass pro today after work. And if all else fails I do have a lee safety scale! Thanks for all the help guys!

So I went to basspro and got the rcbs chargemaster combo and it works AWESOME!!!! THANK GOD!

For loading 500 rounds for a tactical class I would have purchased this http://harrellsprec.com/index.php?crn=49&rn=380&action=show_detail

He's probably doing a precision rifle class. Their shorter 4 day courses require 400 rounds for your precision rifle.

The class I'm taking is pr1&pr2. It's 5days. And my new charge master Combo works awesome!
 
Re: Huge bind! Need new scale ASAP!
