Digital Scales - Any good?

[Ol` Joe]

"I'm thinking of throwing in the towel and going to a digital scale. With one of those puppies - I figure - I can pour-on some 4227 then trickle up to the required amount faster than I can with my poise beam"

What`s wrong with doing this with the scale you have? It sounds more like a problem with the dispenser then your scale.
I`ve a Pact digital and a couple RCBS beam scales and don`t find the digital any faster for weighing powder charges. The problem is with the strain gage the digitals use, they don`t move until enough change in pressure is applied to them. They will hold a steady wgt while trickling then jump after so many extra granuals are added to the pan. Sometimes they don`t move to far, sometimes they do.....
I`ve no experiance with the combo scale/drop measures and they may work fine.
