PACT BBK II. Read the instructions carefully before using it. No kidding.

First off ... how much are you wanting to spend?

I frequently use the RCBS Rangemaster 750 with great results.

If you want to spend more you can go with the Chargemaster 1500.

I recently bought a MyWeigh Gempro. It reads in 100ths of a grain and has been very reliable. If you Google MyWeigh, some resellers should come up so you can check prices and specs.

+1 on the PACT, I've had one for about 6-7 years now and never a problem.
(I do suspect that the same company makes several brands-the PACT and the Cabela's house brand appear to be identical)

PACT is a manufacturer near here and not all their scales have their name on them. I had the same thought when comparing the Cabela's scale. If the battery operated scale is available opt for the one with the 100V adapter. My first BBK was very picky about batteries, buying the 110V was a cost-saving measure.

I've had my RCB 750 for about one year works excellent.

I have an RCBS Partner scale made by Pact. Pacts' customer service is awesome. Anytime I have a problem, I can call Pact and speak to a human being!! They are friendly and very helpful.
