James,
Having and using both balance beam and electronic, the best use of the electronic is in weighing and weight-sorting cases and/or bullets. It really speeds this process up. My Dillon electronic is too "drifty" to trust with close-to-the-edge powder charges, so I use my old Pacific balance beam here. Having both is a convenience, but if I had to give one up, it'd be that damnable Dillon! I probably wouldn't say that if it worked better!
Your balance beam will do everything you need done, and later if you need a low-price electronic - buy a PACT...
