[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2992152, member: 15054"] palmeto had 505 scales forever for 49 bucks.. was mentioned here a few times. You can modify that Lee scale to read more accurate and be easier to read. Super glue a long stickpin or piece of copper wire to the end and extend the reading range make notes of where the new Zero is as well as where the .2gr and other marks end up. I modded this one many years ago. then got the 505.. funny thing is the overall length from pivot point to the end of the needle on the modded lee scale was the same length as the stock 505 scale. Then I modded my 505 scale. I also thinned the hanger points on the lee scale as i found weight could slightly vary as to where or how you hung the pan.
