Load Master

The RCBS ChargeMaster Lite. At first I wasn't real sure about the word "Lite" in the name. I didn't know if I should just pay more and get the RCBS ChargeMaste1500 Scale and ChargeMaster Dispenser. I wondered if the Lite implies it was lacking something the full size bigger brother unit has. Here is what I have learned, first off, after breaking the unit in (two pounds of powder ran through it) and allowing it to warm up (plugged in and on for an hour) I was able to achieve the spec tolerance with most of the powder drops after calibrating per the manual. The drops are fairly quick and it is very repeatable on the charge. I'm enjoying using it.
There is an "Auto Start" mode that can be activated. Once the empty pan is placed back on the scale and the it zeros, the unit will automatically start dispensing the powder without the need to hit the GO button.
My only complaint of the RCBS ChargeMaster Lite are the adjustable scale feet. They are made of a very stinky rubber.
All in all I like the small foot print, using less space on my reloading bench. I expect to use this for developing loads for my .308Win and .223Rem. Not too much for pistol. I'll update as I have more time on Chargemaster Lite.
