Decent Scales, anyone?

I’m looking for a decent scale that a real human has actually used. I bought a cheap one and it is so far off. It’s not even close.
Any recommendations out there that won’t break the bank? Thanks.

Look for something in a jewelry type of scale. Those are pretty accurate as nobody wants to be giving away gold and other precious metals and gems.
Good ones come with calibration weights.

I have a cheap set of kitchen scales (digital) that only weigh in half-gram increments, good for weighing ounces and stuff. I use my Hornady reloading scales when I need to be super accurate (weigh to within 1/10 of a grain, or 1/159th of a gram!). They won’t do much more than an ounce, but I’ve never had that much blow before, at least not too many times!

Have two… One for weighing nutes… One for buds, concentrate, etc.

Accurate and fast. Battery lasts a long time.

Glad to hear I’m not the only one. High accuracy and precision are mandatory for scales that are meant to weigh propellant loads, for obvious reasons.
