[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3535738, member: 41653"] Tricklers are cheap. Pick a cheap one and get it. Scales on the other hand... I'm going to go against what I suspect will be most others, and recommend against an electronic scale for powder charges. At least, at first. Get a decent mechanical scale. A 502 or 505 will last you forever. They used to pop up on eBay,, but everything is priced abnormally right now. A cheap electronic scale is crap, and you will be constantly wondering about the accuracy. A good electronic scale is hundreds of dollars. Get a good mechanical scale, scoop and trickle. When you get more experience, you may want to spend for an electronic scale. Maybe not. I've been reloading for over 30 years, I use a scoop and trickle, or a powder throw. No electronic scale for powder. [/QUOTE]
