My new toy, Safety Powder Scale

[JohnnyEnfield]

I think the locking tab took a bit of effort to lock in place the first few times on mine. I don't think yours is defective (I can't handle it of course to make sure) I think it may need to be pushed harder until it clicks or snaps into place.

Exactly, so it was ... I made a little strength and it works perfectly. Thanks JohnnyEnfield

I am glad that it works correctly.

In my opinion the locking poise on the Lee Safety Scale is one of the best features available. I have a very nice Lyman D5 scale, but if I remove/replace the pan too quickly, or lightly bump the beam when replacing the pan, the 1/10 gr poise can jump. I once had to dump and recharge 40, 44 Magnum charged cases because the poise jumped .3 heavier, and I didn't know when it started (I often weigh most charges when nearing max. or for a load work up). Never had this problem with my Lee...

Lee is Lee, I am very happy with the brand.
