The RCBS Lite is on sale on the Cabela's website for $217.49. Maybe that will help you decide?
I haven't looked a lot...but that is the cheapest I've seen it.

I too have the Chargemaster 1500 and have been extremely happy with it. There are some cheat codes that you can get off Youtube that speeds the dispenser up.
I have the lyman gen 6 and it's very accurate. I check t frequently with my rcbs scale and it's never been offSimple question: Which is better, the RCBS ChargeMaster Lite or the Lyman Gen6 ?
I was not happy with either and went back to a beam scale and powder drop. It takes about the same total time to finish a case. The Gen 6 is a PITA to clean after use.
^ that’s the direction I was going as I like to tinker but once I checked my beam scale setup with the A&D FX102i I kind of lost interest.
I can make someone a deal on the A&D though, if they are interested. Like new, never even had the protective cover off.
